Hearst Museum object titled Basket, accession number 1-20808, described as Openwork, twined. Made of hazel twigs. Tag "Eel River". Second tag "Northwest California". Third tag "44". Fourth tag "No. 44 property of Mrs. George H. Taylor, Fresno, Cal." Fifth tag "Klamath River Tribes att." Sixth tag "44". Per Ralph Shanks: Openwork twined basket. The basket has two pairs of 4 crossed warps at the starting knot. The warp material is probably hazel. The wefts are conifer root at the base, and possibly hazel for the rest of the basket. At the base there is plain twining to the edge, where there is one weft row of three strand twining. Plain twining then continues to the rim. The warp sticks are crossed at the top row, as well as a few other areas on the basket. At the rim the basket has two closer spaced rows of wefts. At the rim the warps are bent and then woven into a herringbone pattern, bound down to the interior, and then cut. The basket has an up to the right slant of weft twist. The basket has a rightward work direction with an exterior workface. The basket is from Northwestern California, possibly Wiyot based on the Eel River collection area and the smooth weaving of the basket.
