A striking Yup'ik coiled sea grass basket of tall, rounded form with a fitted lid topped by a short knobbed finial. Polychrome embroidery forms repeating vertical bands of stylized branching and geometric motifs around the body and continues across the lid, with darker and warm-toned accents standing out against the natural grass. Attributed to basketmaker Angela Odinzoff (1928-1998) of Stebbins, Alaska. The basket measures approximately 10" in diameter x 12.5" tall.
