content: Coiled basket. Flat bottom, with sides flaring out towards the rim. Rigid cane (bamboo?) wrapped with raffia-like grasses. Bottom is mostly undyed fibers, with a ring of darker brown. Sides have bands of color-- medium brown, dark brown, and undyed. Stitching in contrasting color up the sides. Very brittle and damaged, especially at rim.
