An early standout in the sale is a gorgeous basket up for viewing in the online catalog at Lot 26. This Pima Basket was made circa 1920 and is 11 inches deep and 15 inches wide. The basket is in good condition considering its age and there are 7 photos available on iCollector.com to show all of the areas of the basket. This will be one of the most hotly contested pieces early in the sale, and carries a great value estimate of 750 to 1200 US Dollars.

For collectors of Navajo textiles, they will be waiting for Lots 75 and 76. These are both wonderful vintage textiles. Lot 75 was made circa the 1940’s and is 54 inches by 78 inches in dimension. It uses completely handmade vegetal dyes and looks to sell in the 400 to 700 dollar range. Lot 76 is older and is from the 1920’s. This completely handmade textile is 56 inches by 87 inches using natural dyes. Both textiles have an array of pictures for collectors to view before placing their bids; available by searching the online catalog on iCollector.com

A very interesting standout piece is showing near the wrap up of the auction at Lot 195. This Navajo Kachina doll, which is 14 inches tall, is a must have for collectors. This doll is part of a beautiful selection of Kachina’s that are placed between Lot 184 up to Lot 197. Each doll is estimated to go to the highest bidder for very reasonable prices and will please all of the successful collectors.
