Gullah Sweetgrass Baskets
Basketry style indigenous to the Low Country tidewaters of the American Southeast. Once sold mainly from roadside stands along Route 17 North in Mt. Pleasant South Carolina near Charleston, Gullah style baskets are coiled of sweetgrass (Muhlenbergia filipes). Longleaf pine needles are used to decorate baskets and strips of palmetto leaves are used to stitch the coils together.

Soft coiled baskets lined with fabric used for sleeping infants and babies. Bassinets, wicker doll carriages and cradles.
