Mat made of tightly woven strips of cedar, thin warps and wefts to the inside, with a border of wider strips on three edges. Inset from the border and running along its length and width are decorative bands of dark-dyed cedar strips that cross at the corners. The mat is damaged and torn into four parts, however two of these (part a) remain attached by black thread that was machine sewn along all the borders.
