Hearst Museum object titled Acorn meal basket, accession number 1-503, described as Basket for meal. Tag: "Yuki". Per Ralph Shanks: Flaring coiled basket bowl, used, with food residue, apparently used for sifting meal. The wefts are closely spaced. The start is knotted and twined. The coil foundation is a mix of splints and rods. The wefts are peeled and unpeeled redbud, and possibly another peeled shoot. The rim is plain wrapped with three herringbone stitches at the ending. The designs are near the upper ⅓ of the basket where there are one coil wide horizontal bands with breaks in them, as well as random rectangles. The basket has an exterior workface, a rightward work direction, and the majority of wefts have a down to the right slant of weft twist. The weft fag ends are primarily concealed. The weft moving ends are primarily concealed. The weft stitches are not often split on either face.
