Hearst Museum object titled Basket, accession number 1-67842, described as Coiled basket, wide mouth, sloping sides. Tag "Yuki". Coiled shallow basket with flaring sides, with no use wear or residue. The start is twined. The warps are rods and splints. The wefts are peeled redbud as a background and unpeeled redbud designs. There is another weft material that is an unknown unpeeled plant shoot that is a medium brown. The design is two various color bands with breaks in the bands that line up. There are two random rectangles. The rim is plain wrapped with a blunt coil ending, with the warps clipped. The weft fag ends are bound under and the weft moving ends are clipped. On the exterior the wefts are not split and the interior wefts are 75% split. The basket has an exterior workface, a rightward work direction, and a down to the right slant of weft twist. Based on the materials, design, and lack of many random rectangles this is more likely a Wailaki rather than Yuki basket.
