Avery fine old Northwest Coast Salish Cowlitz or Klickitat western Washington imbricated oblong child\'s basket bowl dating from the early to mid 1800\'s.The basket was collected in the late 1800\'s by James Mercer Vernon (1849-1926). a news paper editor from Ohio, who served as editor of the Everett, Washington Times from 1891-1901. The basket is finely woven from split cedar bark and root with a simple but stunning imbricated banded design fields in natural cream bear grasses . The basket measures 5\"L x 4\" wide and stands 2 3/4\" tall and is in excellent condition for its age with a great dark aged patina and a fully rim ,no restorations or repairs noted. Most likely made for a grandchild by her grandmother as a special small bowl. Small child\'s baskets are some of our favorite baskets. Given the dark patina this is an exceptional early basket and one of the oldest we\'ve ever owned. The best of the best type of basket worthy of any museum collection.
