Basket Item Number: 2868/5 from the MOA: University of British Columbia
Description
Small rectangular basket with scalloped detail around edge. The scalloped edge forms an outline with peaks under which there is hollow space. This line is coiled. They majority of the basket is close twinned around wide horizontal spokes. This creates three wide bands around the perimeter of the basket. The middle band has been imbricated with a red brown material and differently texture material. The top stripe that is imbricated is the same colour as the rest of the basket but it contrasts in texture. Below it is two more decorative stripes; both are red brown. All of the stripes are plaited into the basket. There is a tag tied to the basket that has the artist’s name, community and a price written on it in pen.
