A brown, cylindrical twined basket tapers toward its base. Two wide, horizontal bands of interlocking geometric patterns wrap the exterior, displaying winding, maze-like motifs. Thick tan lines form the primary rectilinear shapes, bordered by thin orange diagonal accents. A fine, tight weave creates a consistent gridded texture across the entire vessel.
