The later is described as having ribs of slender peeled bams, making it watertight and strong, and is used in shallow plaques and storage baskets. The sizes available are 12, 15, and 18 inches, priced at $4.50, $6.00, and $7.50 respectively. The "Ti" weave is started similarly but includes a spiral exterior and is highly prized for its uniqueness. It comes in the same sizes, priced significantly higher at $9.00, $12.00, and $15.00.
