They are renowned for their exquisite basketry, particularly twined baskets made from materials like hazel shoots, pine roots, willow, and overlays of maidenhair fern or bear grass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA winnowing tray basket is a shallow, open, tray-like basket used in traditional food processing. It serves primarily for winnowing (tossing grains or seeds in the air to separate them from chaff) and sifting acorn meal, as well as serving foods like salmon. Hupa trays are typically twined with simple, geometric patterns or overlays, distinguishing them from the more coiled styles of southern California tribes (e.g., Pomo or Hopi).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique American Indian Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47316299219109,"sku":"220726-055","price":975.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/6071\/5685\/files\/220726-055_1.jpg?v=1766104036","url":"https:\/\/antiqueamericanindianart.com\/products\/hupa-winnowing-tray-basket","provider":"Antique American Indian Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
