Antique 1930s Mohawk Splint & Seagrass Sewing Basket
The Antique 1930s Mohawk Splint & Seagrass Sewing Basket is a finely handwoven piece crafted from natural splint and braided seagrass, reflecting the skill and tradition of the Native American basket makers. Its tight weave, decorative banding, and sturdy handles speak to the practical artistry behind early sewing baskets, while the hinged lid adds a functional touch rooted in everyday use. As a historical object, it carries the subtle significance of Mohawk craftsmanship and brings that cultural note into any space. The basket shows the small imperfections expected of an antique that has journeyed through time — softened fibers, minor wear, and age‑earned character that affirm its authenticity. Together, its materials, construction, and lived history make it a meaningful example of early 20th‑century Indigenous basketry.
