PLATE VII.
(Mason. Baaket-work. ) FIG. 11. Twined basket-wallet of the Chilkaht Indians (Thlinkit stock), band-box shape when spread out. The bottom is very roughly made of spruce-root splints, warp and twine, the former radiating from the center. The bound ary of the bottom is a single row of twine fastened on externally. The cylindrical portion for a few inches above the bottom is in natural brown color, excepting two or three vertical bands of embroidery. The rest of the body is in stripe...s of natural color, black and Indian red. The border is formed by turning under the warp threads and cutting them off. The ge ometric patterns (different on every wallet) are formed by embroidering upon the outer surface, half through the fabric, with yellow, light red straws and spruce-root dyed. This style of basketry is followed by the Haidas in the baskets made for sale. Collected at Sitka, Alaska, by Dr. J. B. White, in 1876. Museum number, 21560.
