PAIPAI PAI Indian Art Baskets Pottery

Tirsa Flores, holding a new olla pot, takes a picture with her daughter, holding a new pine needle basket, with family members sitting together on indigenous rocks in the background.

The two Native American women are well known ethnographic California artists, and their family makes mostly Indian pottery, bark skirts, pine needle baskets and ceremonial sage bundles for sale across the US-Mexico border.
