Plain twining continues until ½ inch below the rim, where there are two weft rows of lattice twining with one weft row of plain twining between them. Plain twining continues until the rim. The rim is trimmed. The basket is almost entirely covered in overlay. The main design is vertical zigzags with triangles on the exterior with a horizontal maidenhair fern band at the top and bottom.
