Tsimshian trinket baskets are small, often lidded decorative or functional baskets made by Tsimshian (Ts’msyen) artists from the Pacific Northwest Coast (primarily northern British Columbia, including areas like Metlakatla, and parts of Alaska).  These are smaller "trinket" or souvenir-style pieces (sometimes with lids) suited for holding small items. They align with broader Northwest Coast basketry traditions but feature distinctive Tsimshian characteristics.

Shipping

U.S. Shipping: One Flat Rate Per Order

Every U.S. order is packed in-house at our gallery and ships insured via USPS or UPS, with signature required on delivery. You pay one flat rate for the whole order, never per item:

  • Fetishes: $8
  • Jewelry & Pottery: $15
  • All other pieces: $20

Buying from more than one category? You only pay the highest rate in your cart, so eight fetishes and a pair of earrings ship together for just $15.

Oversized Pieces

Large or heavy pieces, such as big pottery, baskets, rugs and framed art, are custom-packed and shipped at actual cost. As a guide, that's anything needing a box larger than 12" × 12" × 12" or weighing over 5 lbs. At checkout, choose Oversized – Shipping Invoiced Separately and we'll email your shipping invoice, usually within 24 hours. Contact us for an estimate before you buy.
