Tall glass sculpture with three cedar mount parts. A tall glass cylinder (part a), rounded at top and bottom, is the central piece in the sculpture, representing a trade bead. Its under-layer is frosted white, covered by a red frosted cut-out layer in swooping patterns and dots. It sits on a low, round cedar base (part b), carved along the edge, with a mat of woven cedar bark at centre. A hole in the middle supports a wood pole (part d) that extends throught the glass cylinder and is capped at top by small wooden lid (part c), carved similarly to the base.
