Unidentified ciosan, detail of base weaving. Highland Folk Museum

This unidentified ciosan is interesting because two materials were used in the binding, twine for the sides and possibly willow or bramble for the base. Bramble is more likely because of the few joins. This could be QP3 (D218) from Uist, which could not be located.
