This basket from an unidentified Coast Salish group was probably used to collect clams, mussels, small fish, seaweed and other saltwater resources. The open twined container provided drainage and also helped prevent mold and insect infestation when used for food storage.

This deep coiled basket is comprised of yucca fibers sewn over grass bundles. The leaves of the yucca plant supplied a variety of hues suitable for basket making, ranging from white to pale yellow to green. Black dye was made from sunflower seeds combined with piñon gum and ochre.

In 1897, after her first husband deserted her and her child, a young nurse named Hattie Lockwood pooled her resources with another friend in Tacoma and determined to build a hospital for injured miners in Skagway, Alaska. On the voyage north, their ship was wrecked in a blizzard; all their building and medical supplies were lost, and the women barely escaped with their lives. After three grueling years in the Alaskan wilderness, Lockwood returned to the United States and eventually married Henry Strong, the first president of Eastman Kodak Co. This and several other baskets the new Mrs. Strong had acquired during her youthful sojourn were later donated to MAG.
The “chainsaw” pattern was designed after First Nations people in British Columbia became aware of logging operations near the Fraser River. The red portions are natural-color cherry bark; the black is cherry bark darkened from being buried in “muck and charcoal.”

Originally known as the S'Puyalupubsh, the Puyallup Tribe is part of the Salish speaking people of the Pacific Northwest. Living along the shores of Puget Sound, their basket-making abilities are well-respected and tout a great variety of types and construction techniques. The Salish made baskets for cooking, storage, and sale to non-Native collectors. This example combines both geometric and human forms.

Many traditional basket forms were reduced in size for sale to non-Natives. The design of this small Thompson River Salish basket with an attached lid was most likely based on a larger model originally designed for storage.

This coiled basket with its rectangular base and flaring sides was a design usually reserved for work baskets. The coiling technique was often used to create baskets with geometric designs. Coiling begins at the center of a basket’s base and grows upon itself in rounds, each attached to the round before. The colored details are applied over the coiled core by folding a strip of grass, bark, or other fiber accordion-style under each sewing stitch on the outer surface of the basket and fastening it securely.

Whether for gathering, carrying or storing, the forms of most baskets announce their function. This lidded basket would have been ideal for the tourist trade - small, easily transportable, and the perfect container for trinkets. It’s made by the technique of coiling, with bundles of grasses used as the foundation for the coils.

The Apache people have long been known for their exquisite basket work. Women made the baskets from thin sticks of willow, cottonwood, or sumac which they collected, soaked and then stitched together. Color was added with a variety of natural dyes. This large olla, or jar-shaped basket, is decorated with human, animal and geometric forms. Made for sale, it took a highly skilled weaver to manage the geometric patterns and designs on such a large basket, which required many months to complete and would have been highly prized.
