Antique Jicarilla Apache baskets are highly regarded examples of Native American basketry from the Jicarilla Apache people, who reside primarily in northern New Mexico. The name "Jicarilla" itself derives from Spanish explorers' term for "little basket," reflecting their renowned skill in weaving small sealed vessels, though they produced a wide range of forms.

Jicarilla Apache baskets are typically coiled (not twined in most traditional antique examples), using materials like sumac (often for the rods/foundation) and willow or yucca for the sewing/weft elements.
