A cylindrical, twined basket with a slightly rounded body features horizontal woven ridges throughout. A dark-brown upper portion transitions into a wide central band of golden-tan, decorated with reddish-brown interlocking shapes and a large, horizontally split triangle. Around the base, a row of tan triangles point upward within a reddish-brown zigzag pattern, completing the intricate geometric design.
