Birch-bark basket made from a single piece of bark, rectangular at the base with four sharp corners. It is stitched together at each end. The mouth is rounded and scooped, with a spruce stitched rim. The exterior is smooth and holds several scars and irregular growths in the wood. A repeating pattern of leaf designs is etched into the bark and encircles the basket. The bark of the interior is rough and flaking.
Rectangular tray with cross patterns. The tray has a low wall around the perimeter. The rim of this wall has false braiding around it. The tray is primarily yellow and demonstrates closed twining. There are also imbricated dark brown and red brown elements. In the base of the tray the imbricated motif is formed from small squares formed by five smaller squares; there is a smaller square in each corner and one in the centre. On either end of the tray, seven of the five-part squares meet at an acute angle which points into the centre of the tray. In the centre of the tray, two lines formed from seven of the five-part squares bisect each other diagonally. On the exterior of the walls of the tray, the imbricated dark brown and red brown material forms triangles made of small squares. The longest sides of the tray each have four triangles adorning them and the shorter sides have three triangles. The red brown triangles and dark brown triangles are placed next to each other to form a pattern. The artist’s name is written in pen on the bottom of the tray.
