Birch Bark Antique Lidded Box with Leather Pull shoe bowl The stain on this one

The stain on this one has a bit of a reddish tone

including some notable ceramics and glass

so that I'd see it morning and night

to the wonderfully specific baskets full of fish and other things including what I'd guess are lemongrass stalks

This whole set is in very good condition

Birch Bark Antique Lidded Box with Leather Pull shoe bowl The stain on this oneThis is a wonderful old birch bark box with a great form and patina, and wonderful scalloped edges around the bark of the exterior, which is wrapped around the box and nicely tucked in at the end. A leather pull on the top with scalloped edge matches. I believe this box would have been used to store tobacco, and I have seen very similar examples described as Native American, primarily dating to the mid to late 19th century. There are a series of X's
