Anotations

Scope note:

Baskets created with doubleweave techniques, where one basket is woven outside another separate basket. Typically made of plant fibers such as rivercane (Arundinaria gigantea); splints are often dyed to create varying patterns on the sides and lids of the basket. Manufactured by various Southeastern Native North American tribes, but the Cherokee are most well-known for their doubleweave basketry.
