A low, cylindrical lid of twined tan grass features decorative horizontal bands encircling its vertical walls. Near the base, two thin reddish-orange lines frame the form. Above, three horizontal rows of dark brown and olive green wavy patterns wrap around the center. A dark brown dotted line marks the upper edge, just below a darker, more densely woven rim. The fine basketry displays a rhythmic, textured surface throughout the composition.
