Paiute baskets, crafted by the Paiute people of the Great Basin region (encompassing parts of Nevada, Utah, California, and Arizona), are made from plant materials native to their arid environment. These baskets served both practical purposes—like gathering, storage, and cooking—and cultural roles, showcasing the Paiute’s skill in adapting sparse resources into durable, functional items.
