Hopi baskets are rich in beauty and cultural significance. The coiled baskets made at Second Mesa celebrate their makers’ connection with the land. Even today, these baskets are made using little more than plant materials and sunlight. The creation of one basket requires countless hours of work and a great deal of knowledge. Their significance to the Hopi people cannot be understated. They are used as gifts, prizes, currency and—most significantly—a wide variety of ceremonial purposes.
