Small round basket with a coiled slat foundation. Rim has two loops and braided cedar bark as decoration. Red cherry bark beading in three horizontal bands decorate the body of the basket with broken up horizontal beading around the foot of the basket.
Oval, birch bark basket with squared bottom. Body of basket stitched together at two points with spruce root. Decoration is scraped into bark. Rim reinforced with wood and lashed to body with spruce root, and four pieces of fabric. Two pieces are blue (4 cm and 4.4 cm long) and two are red (4 cm and 4.2 cm long). Fabric is secured by crossed pieces of spruce root on each end. Beneath lashing on rim are remains of pink and purple yarn (?). There are two bands of decoration, about two cm apart, scraped into bark of body. Each band consists of three thin lines. Top lines in both bands have triangles side by side, bases about 1.2 cm - 1.5 cm apart, pointing up. Bottom lines have triangles pointing down. Centre lines have no pattern on them.
Basket with oval mouth that tapers to a square base. Spruce root (?) is used to stitch the bark together and to finish the rim by lashing a reinforcing strip of wood to the upper edge using a series of repeatedly increasing and decreasing lengths of stitch (up to 1 cm) to form a jagged pattern. A scraping technique is used to decorate the basket in horizontal bands of light and dark. Pattern consists of three dark horizontal bands at the top followed by a repetition of a wider band saw-toothed on both upper and lower edges and two narrow horizontal bands; this is repeated four times. The decoration does not quite match on both sides (on one side, the last two horizontal bands do not appear). The top of the rim has the remains of a red thread flanked on both sides by a green thread that was woven into the spruce stitching.
