The Yanomami are an indigenous people to the Amazonian regions of Brazil and Venezuela. This monumental basket is tightly handwoven of natural fibers with several inner rings for stability, and palm leaf straps. The straps are placed over the forehead and used to carry the basket on ones back. Please note the slightly "wonky" resting position of the basket in the first two photos. These photos show the angle at which the basket naturally rests on a flat surface. See less
