The rim is trimmed. The main overlay design has one horizontal design band of beargrass, with outlines of triangles. There are three incomplete horizontal lines of beargrass on one side of the basket. The slant of weft twist is up to the right, with a rightward work direction. The basket has an exterior workface. The overlay is predominately on the exterior. The surface undulates. This is a Southern Humboldt Athabascan basket, possibly Nongatl.

The weft material is redbud, peeled and unpeeled. The design includes three bands of two sets of diagonally stacked rectangles with three large triangles. There are no random rectangles. The rim is plain wrapped; with the rim coil ending blunt. The weft fag ends are concealed; the weft moving ends are bound under. Many of the wefts are split on the interior, less than 20% are split on the exterior. The wefts are non-interlocking. The basket has an exterior workface. It has a leftward work direction and a up to the right slant of weft twist. The features of the basket are slightly different than many Yuki baskets but are close enough to still make this a Yuki basket. The non-typical Yuki features include the leftward work direction and the lack of random rectangles.
