Description

"A pale beige grass basket, 6 inches in diameter and 6 inches high, with a knobbed cover. Pink triangles are spaced at intervals as a design. This basket, made by the Tlinkit Indians of Alaska, was given to me by Mrs. Burley who was at Hooper Bay, Alaska for many years where she worked with the Arts and Crafts Board at Nome. It was given to me March 3, 1951 at Chemawa, Oregon."

The lid fits very tightly. The basket has 11 rows ans 10 stitches per inch.
