Published, Arizona Highways Indian Basket Issue, July 1975

Tlingit baskets are exquisite examples of traditional weaving from the Tlingit people, an Indigenous nation of the Pacific Northwest Coast, primarily in southeast Alaska and parts of British Columbia. Renowned for their intricate craftsmanship, these baskets blend functionality with artistic expression, serving as both everyday tools and cultural artifacts. They are among the finest examples of two-strand twining techniques, using natural materials to create waterproof vessels that have sustained Tlingit communities for centuries.
