Tsimshian basketry is a highly skilled, traditional art form practiced by the Tsimshian (Ts'msyen) people of Northern British Columbia and Southeastern Alaska. Woven primarily by women, these baskets traditionally served vital functional roles—such as gathering berries or collecting seaweed—before evolving into highly sought-after collector items in the tourist trade during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
