Container Birchbark with Cover & Tulip Designs

Add this beautiful Birchbark Container to your collection. The artist etched Tulip designs on both sides.   A Leaf design appears on the cover. A light coat of polyurethane gives it a bit of a shine.  The artist used spruce root to hold it together. A bent spruce branch stabilizes the top opening. You will see a bit of twine that holds the branch ends together.  The artist used two pieces of Birchbark for the cover.  It is very sturdy and you can take it completely off the container.  A piece of Braintanned Deerskin Leather Lacing serves as a carrying handle.
The Container stands 6.5″ tall.  The bottom measures 8″ x 6.5″.    The top opening measures about 4" in diameter. This Container came from a collection. It is in very good condition. Use it for storage or display.  One of a Kind!
