This LARGE Milk Container Coiled Basket was hand made by Liina Amantundu, Ondangwa, Region of Namibia. This basket is the largest of three baskets that was given to the National Art Gallery of Namibia by the Ministry of Basic Education, Sport and Culture Republic of Namibia. It measures approximately 17 inches in diameter at the base and approximately 19 inches high from the base to the top of the stopper. Original documentation, dated 2003, is provided with the Basket (see photos), however the actual age of the basket is unknown. The basket shows age as is evident in the dry rawhide cage which encloses the basket itself, but is otherwise in excellent vintage condition. This large and heavy statement Museum Quality basket is perfect for the collector of African Art pieces or as a conversation piece in any home decor!
