Description: This art basket depicts the Native American myth of "Raven Stealing the Sun" with a twist: this time the sun wins! The basket has a turned rim and base of Ziricote wood and is woven in super-fine carriage cane. The lid is sculpted from Mayan bloodwood and tulipwood with ebony and yellowheart inlays. The raven skull was carved by Tom Sterling from polychromed moose antler. Tom's experience as a netsuke artist clearly shines through in this exciting piece. The basket measures 3 3/4 inches in diameter and measures approximately 3 inches. Exceptional work throughout.
