Apache Large Tray Bowl Basket is a traditional woven baskets crafted by Apache artisans, particularly from the Western or San Carlos Apache communities. These are iconic examples of Native American basketry, blending utilitarian forms with intricate symbolic designs. Apache baskets are categorized into types like trays (flat to shallow), bowls (deeper and rounded), and ollas (storage vessels), but “tray bowl” often describes hybrid forms that are shallow yet curved like a bowl, used historically for winnowing grain, serving food, or ceremonial purposes. Large pieces (typically 1421 inches in diameter) are highly prized for their size, symmetry, and pictorial motifs.

Provenance: From the Len and Toni Wood Private Collection, Laguna Beach, California
