Twined basket with plaiting on bottom. Bird designs in red and green. 3/10/2026 update from appraisal paperwork: These baskets (including 115.029, 115.030, 115.031, 115.032, 115.033) originated from tribes that occupy the Puget Sound of Washington State and British Columbia. Their special weaving technique is wrapped twining in bear grass over a foundation of thin strands of cedar bark. In some examples, the base is plaited cedar bark, in the case of the large bowl (this record), the smaller flat-lidded piece, and the domed piece. The other two have a twined grass weft on the base. In all of these examples the designs are dyed bear grass in brilliant colors, an indication of aniline dyes which were obtained from commercial sources during the early part of the 20th century. The large shallow bowl basket has a rim wrapping of African raffia palm leaf, which was also commercially available in this area. The designs include geometrics, ducks, and a canoe scene."
