This colorful Makah Basket will be a splendid addition to your Basket collection!   The basketmaker used Pink, Green and Blue dyed Beargrass to create the design.  Three waterbirds appear on the sides of this basket and a star or flower appears on the lid. Makah Natives used Bear Grass and Cedar bark to make their Baskets.
The previous owner stored this Basket well because the colors remain bright.  This Basket stand 2" tall with the lid on. It measures just about 2.5" in diameter.  Display it in your Basket collection, or use it to store small items.
