content: measurement with lid. Small, flat, lidded basket which is both round and square. The basket and lid are woven from split reed or cane. The weaving on both begins with a square but the rims are round, with wide brims. The brim is a cane hoop bound with smaller, more pliable cane. The lid and basket are attached to each other by two woven cords threaded through the body and then woven together, and attached to a shaped piece of palm rib, which may have made it easier to hang. The lid does not have a wide brim.
