Later on, the baskets were created as gifts or for sale to tourists. This rare Tlingit knob top rattle basket is a beautifully handmade piece originating from the Pacific Northwest. The basket features intricate designs with spruce root, maiden hair fern, and dyed bear grass, showcasing traditional Tlingit craftsmanship.
