Nuu-chah-nulth art primarily focuses on wood carving (e.g., totem poles, canoes, masks) and basketry woven from cedar bark or spruce roots. Their coastal environment favored wood and fiber due to abundant cedar forests. Women traditionally wove cedar bark or spruce root baskets, sometimes small in size, used for gathering or trade.
