This beautifully woven Tlingit lidded basket dates to 1910’s or 1920’s. Finely woven in a plain twining style from spruce root, it has a band of dyed grass false embroidered on the body of the basket in “the leaves of the fireweed” pattern. The purple and red dyed grass resembles the magenta blooms of the fireweed flowers. The lid of the basket has a single band of red dyed grass in the same pattern and the body of the basket and a single row of false embroidery around the knob.
