A corn husk woven basket with wooden shaping dowels. One side of the rectangle is flat while the other end is curved. There are two blue stripes on the inside floor of the basket and green and purple designs on the outside.<br /> <br /> This straw basket (<em>samtaegi</em> ) is woven from dyed straw. The round frame at the back of it is made from bitterwood and the front part from bamboo. Judging from the use of dyed straw, this basket was probably used for drying grain such as soy beans. <p>[Korean Collection, University of Michigan Museum of Art (2017) p. 277]</p>
