A circular twined basketry vessel features a wide rim and a raised central lid. The rim is decorated with tan and dark brown triangles forming a continuous zigzag ring. At the center, the circular lid features a swirling motif with four curved sections of alternating brown and tan radiating from the midpoint. The entire surface is composed of dense stitches, creating a uniform texture in warm, earthy tones.
