The form features a rectangular base that transitions into flared sides with rounded corners, worked in a traditional over-under plain weave pattern. The structure includes a single, stationary wooden handle arched over the center, which is securely integrated into the woven sides. The rim is reinforced with a double-hoop splint binding and fastened with a continuous wrap lashing. The wood displays a naturally aged honey-brown patina throughout. No maker marks, signatures, or labels are visible on the interior or underside.
