We're running 10-day auctions this week, beginning on Thursday and ending the following Sunday.
Offered is our second Native American miniature this week: This is a lovely, tiny Northwest Coast Makah Nootka Trinket Basket with a whale and fishing boat. It measures 1 1/2" by 1 3/4".
It was probably made before 1970-80. There's a sales receipt inside that's a bit yellowed with a price of $16.00. The previous owner or antique dealer's name is on the receipt and she passed away in 2013 at the age of 92.
Fine condition. A tiny bit of roughness at lid edge. Please see pictures.
General Information about our business, shipping, holding items, etc.: * Most of the items we sell come from our personal collection gathered o ver the years from our travels, from Native powwows and craft stores, antique shops auctions and estate sales. *We w ill gladly combine orders to save you on shipping charges unless otherwise noted. Please email for a combined invoice before paying. Sorry, I can't combine collectibles and book/Magazine purchases. *If you want me to hold items for the next week's auction, please contact me and wait to pay until the last auction ends. Then I'll send you a combined invoice. If you pay right away, I will NOT be able to hold your items due to Ebay's ship within 1-day after payment rule. Please tell me if you are waiting for next week's auction. If you don't communicate and don't pay, you will get an automated non-paying bidder notice from Ebay after 4 days. Thank you!
*I pack carefully and try to reuse materials to save on environmental impact. I often double-box items with smaller gift boxes collected from various thrift stores. Though I don't like styrofoam peanuts for environmental reasons, I have found they are the best at protecting fragile items against damage during shipping. I reuse all that I receive and hope you will make use of the ones that come in your packages. Thank you. * Please contact us before leaving negative feedback if something isn't right with your item. We want you to be satisfied with your purchase |
