Rogans are birch bark baskets made by the Attikameks in Quebec, Canada.
The baskets were traditionally used by women collecting berries in
the forest and for storing food. They are made from birch bark
that has been tied together with spruce roots. Most rogans have
smoked moose hide straps. Usually, the rogans are decorated with
designs of flowers and animals that have been scraped into the
bark. Some large containers are used as clothes hampers.
Each rogan is unique. Except for the
extra small rogans, we catalog each one individually. If you need
more pictures, we generally have a few views of each one. Let us
know and we can pull pictures from our photo archive.
Our Gxx codes denote individual pieces. If you would like to order a specific rogan, please go to our Gallery to pick the exact one shown.
