Some baskets were designed with pictures of whales or birds or people as more and more tourists were wanting to buy the baskets. The weave is tiny and perfect, and the bottom has a center (I call it a "belly button") that is made with Red Cedar. The more tiny the weave and the more vibrant the colors, the more value they have today. It is the best Makah basket I have ever found in all my years of collecting as the basket is very flexible, the weave is so tiny and the colors are great! There is no damage to the weave except for a couple of the tiny splints at the rim are a little crooked. Most are smaller because it took less materials and time to make them for the tourists. It is about 6 inches in diameter by about 3 inches high, very large for one of these baskets. Since both made baskets pretty much the same way it is hard to tell but I am leaning towards the Nootka on this one.
