Northeast Coast Native Basketry Sewing Scissors Holder love spoon I first picked this up

I first picked this up because I liked it as a box--old

and as much like a sculpture as a functional object

The leather top has lost some of its stitching

and then an all over pattern of leaves/flowers on the sides and top which give it sort of a Southeast Asian feel

2 1/2" deep

Northeast Coast Native Basketry Sewing Scissors Holder love spoon I first picked this upThis is a sweet little Northeast Coast Native American handwoven sweetgrass and splint ash basket made to hold a small pair of sewing scissors. The two little loops at top, which mimic the shape of scissors handles, could be used for hanging it from a belt, hook, or ribbon on the wall. 3" long x 1" wide x 1 2" deep and in very good condition.
