13 1/2" by 8 1/2" by 6". Council City Alaska beaded pattern. Basket was likely made in the Norton Sound area. Council is a small, historic mining ghost town located 60 miles northeast of Nome, Alaska, along the Niukluk River. While it once boomed during the gold rush era and was established as "Council City", it currently has a population of zero, though it serves as a popular summer cabin spot and historic site
