Part of the Elsie Allen Pomo Basket Collection As noted by one professional evaluator (J. Polanich, January '89) the weaving is outstanding in that the stitch and rod sizes vary according to basket diameter. Fine stitches are found at the base and rim with thicker work on the walls. Truly, this represents sophisticated artistry in this single rod coiled piece of sedge grass root and willow warp. Simple crossing diagonals of checks, in dyed bulrush, form the designs. The shape is a nice globose form.
