A traditional flat coiled basketry tray (often called a plaque or tray) made by a Tohono O'odham (formerly known as Papago) weaver named Sally Landiego, associated with the Gila Bend area from Arizona. Tohono O'odham/Papago basketry is renowned for its coiled construction using materials gathered from the Sonoran Desert. Flat trays like this were traditionally used for food preparation (e.g., winnowing, parching grain with hot coals), serving, and storage, and later became popular as decorative or sale items.
