Longun is a wicker container used for storing cereals like rice or maize. A pulp made out of paper and starch has been used to cover the gaps in the wicker weave (akin to daubing on wattle), thus securing the basket and making it ideal for storage.

The object is in fair state.

Dry brushing to remove accumulated dust.
