Coiled Basket
Part of the Elsie Allen Pomo Basket Collection
Concentric "V" shapes form the designs in redbud on the sides. The shape has curving sides that a round on the lower sides and straighter as they taper inward on the upper sides. There is a five-pointed floral on the base. Details of the weave incluse three-rod coiling in sedge root, designs in redbud. Some of the interior stiches are split. The start is a four part plaited beginning, a known trait from Lytton Springs Rancheria.
