About the Item

Antique Apache Large Earthenware Pot, Second Half 19th Century, a very large hand molded clay spheroid vessel, a classic "Olla," with it's original rawhide netting. Since the Apache did not settle down as farmers or herders but rather remained primarily migratory hunters, they did not develop the highly evolved pottery or basketry traditions of the neighboring Pueblo peoples; their pots were typically like this one undecorated, and tended to be very large like this for carrying quantities of water and food on the trail. Similar pots were also made to some extant by the Navajo. This piece came out of an old Adirondack lodge collection. The pot remains in very good condition, with no cracks, and only a few expected rim chips. The pot is held on an iron ring stand. Measures: 17-1/2 in H x 15-1/4 in Diameter On Stand: 22 in H

Mattapoisett Basket, by Gladys Ellis, circa 1940s

Located in Nantucket, MA

Early Vintage Mattapoisett Basket, likely by Gladys Ellis, Mid 20th Century, a hand-crafted basket modeled after a Nantucket purse, having a flat oval "clamshell" lid hinged above an oval body, made of hand-stitched longleaf pine needles and raffia in braided and lace-like arrangements, with two braided raffia handles, a stitched hinge, and a silk lined interior, not signed. This is one of her very early baskets made before she started adding ivory tops and fixtures. The basket remains in strong original condition with no discernible breaks to the weave. There may have once been a loop closure at one point. Measures: 5-1/4 in H x 9 in L x 6-1/4 in W A local adaptation of a Nantucket basket first designed by Gladys Ellis (Mattapoisett: 1917 – 2011). The Mattapoisett basket is made in the shape and nature of a Nantucket basket, but uses southern yellow or longleaf pine needles and raffia coiled and sewn on a frame with a lace-like effect, often incorporating scrimshaw panels on the top and sides, sometimes as well as clasps and handle knobs...
