Comment:
Remarks: Has all the standard Yuki technical features of work direction, starting knot, bundle foundation of splints, peeled shoots and Xerophyllum leaves, stitch type and splices. The use of Xerophyllum leaf sewing material is, however, unusual if not unique. The designs are in standard Yuki style. (Larry E. Dawson)
