Tightly coiled basket with imbricated rings of red cherry bark, some of which have been broken off; Good
Probably Coast Salish, is written on the catalogue card. However this basket is similar to one illustrated in Andrea Laforet' s article in Basketmakers, Meaning and Form in Native American Baskets, Pitt Rivers Museum, Oxford, 1992, page 41, fig.37. This type of basket was characteristic of the Interior Salish of Southern British Columbia and many were traded along the coast to the more northerly peoples. The original European tribal names and, where possible, current tribal names have both been given in separate GLT fields.
