These baskets represent a sophisticated example of Native American basketry, blending functionality for fishing with intricate weaving techniques passed down through generations. They are part of a broader tradition of open-weave (or \"coiled\" and \"twined\") basketry used by Hupa and neighboring tribes like the Yurok and Karuk for trapping salmon, trout, and eels during seasonal runs. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cf0\"\u003e\u003c!--StartFragment --\u003eProvenance:  From the Len and Toni Wood Private Collection, Laguna Beach, California\u003c!--EndFragment --\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c!--EndFragment --\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!--EndFragment --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique American Indian Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45981436313765,"sku":"5231-235A","price":1200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/6071\/5685\/files\/5231-235A_3.jpg?v=1760723225","url":"https:\/\/antiqueamericanindianart.com\/products\/hupa-open-weave-fish-trap-basket","provider":"Antique American Indian Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
