Large burden basket with strap. Basket is constructed in a sturdy, open weave, wide at the mouth, narrowing sharply to a small rectangular base. Base is woven in a herringbone pattern. The lip is wrapped with cherry bark, which is also used as a decorative element in the body of the basket as strands of the warp. A rope of coarse plant fibre is attached around the lip by twists of cedar root, with a carrying strap of woven wool in dark brown and blue attached on one side.
Basket with lid. Basket is round, with a wide shoulder that narrows toward a narrower mouth at top, and a smaller base. The exterior is decorated with cherry bark imbrication in a repeating lightning design in alternating bolts of dark and light brown. The interior bottom is imbricated in a butterfly wing design of triangles in three shades of brown bark. The lid (part b) is slightly domed, with an inset lip and is topped with a round handle at centre. Handle is held to the lid by a short length of white rope attached to a small piece of wood on the underside. Lid is similarly decorated with the repeating lightning design.
Chilkat style robe with woven designs and fringe. The design is in three panels, with an ancestor face in the middle and animal motifs above, below and to the sides.

Two cotton ties are sewn to the top, along with eight (non-original) cotton twill hanging loops.

Around the base is a bright orange stripe edged with dark brown. The rim is a wide strip of cedar attached to the body by woven grass. The lid (part b) is flat, slightly indented at centre, with a round knob. It is also decorated with openwork weaving, orange and brown encircling lines, and an orange and brown geometric pattern around the knob. A blue line circles the lid at midpoint, faded on the exterior but vibrant on the underside.

The two halves are attached by weaving, at the bodies' widest part. Basket and lids are decorated with repeating patterns of small crosses made from alternating black and red imbricated bark with a yellow grass centre.
