Eskimo grass baskets with lids and knobs are traditional handwoven items primarily crafted by Indigenous peoples of Alaska, such as the Yup’ik and Inupiat. These baskets are made from coiled sea grass or rye grass, often decorated with dyed grass, seal gut, or materials like baleen, walrus ivory, or bone for added aesthetic and cultural significance. They are both functional and artistic, used historically for storage, gathering, or ceremonial purposes, and today are valued as collectibles.
