A squat, rounded basket is coiled from light tan fibers, defined by horizontal ridges. Two wide, dark brown bands slant diagonally across the side, merging into a dark rim and base. The vessel curves inward toward a narrow top opening that reveals a dark interior. Its compact silhouette is formed by the rhythmic alternation of natural and dyed plant materials woven into a circular shape.
