Pair of man’s funeral shoes made of fine white leather. The sides are low, but there is an upward extension at the heel, which has a centre seam covered with five vertical cotton strings. Section covering toes is very short; the main body of each shoe is open. There is narrow piping finishing the vertical seam at the front of the toe section, and wider piping around the upper edge of the shoes. The soles are made of layers of natural brown leather slightly thicker at the toe and heel ends, and have numerous iron cleats at the front and heel. The soles are attached to the body of the shoes with a row of stitching around the edge of the soles, and there is a row of heavy, even stitches around the edge of the white leather. The shoes are lined with white leather, and have insoles of woven grey wool fabric.
Pair of light brown open-work shoes woven of straw. Soles are weft-faced, woven in four rows across the shoes with a decorative band under the arch consisting of two rows of shiny lighter-coloured material with a purple row between them. The heels are raised to a point ending in a single vertical element attached to a band extending around from the heel to the sides, where it is attached to a vertical element on each sides. The heel piece and band are wrapped in smooth, shiny plant fibre. The sides from the midpoint to the front consist of vertical twined strings wrapped in a dull brown material, all attached to the sole and to a band at the top which is wrapped in narrower strips of the same shiny yellow plant material. There is an opening at the centre front.
Pair of shoes each carved from a single piece of grey-brown wood with pronounced grain. Each is raised on two heels with a v-shaped space between them positioned at the arch and the heel with iron nails in the front heel. The shoes have low, rounded sides. Heels are concave (from the inside) and extend upwards at the back. The toes curve upwards and end in a point.
One of a pair of embroidered panels on a horizontal rectangle of dark pink silk with a backing of yellow paper that is folded towards the front and pasted in place to form a frame. Each panel is finely embroidered with an arch shape open at the top made up of flowers, leaves, and four multi-coloured butterflies, one of which is near the bottom while the other is near the top of the side of the arch shape. One butterfly is in profile and the other with wings spread. The flowers are predominantly in shades of blue and green. Some details are couched in gold thread. Within the arch are four wide v-shapes of embroidered flowers and leaves opening toward the centre of the panel.

Light pink belt. The damask is woven containing roundels with a floral motif and central character. The belt is long and rectangular.
Pair of women’s shoes made of smooth black leather, lined with dark brown leather. The shoes have low sides but have a rounded extension up over the heel. The toe area is curved upwards and comes to a point. There is a central vertical seam closing the toe area, and a vertical seam at the heel, both with stitches concealed on the inside. The shoes are open along almost their entire length except for a small area over the toes. The opening is finished with narrow piping of the same material. The uppers are stitched to the soles with small even stitches of heavy thread. The rigid soles are formed of multiple layers of leather and taper in slightly except at the heel, which is slightly raised. The soles are covered with rows of iron hobnails except for the area under the arch.
Long coat with both the outer layer and lining made of fine white cotton fabric. The coat is made of ten flared vertical panels. It overlaps to the right, with two long, wide ribbons of the same fabric for ties. The coat is secured on the inside with shorter, narrow ties of the same material, positioned at the same level. When closed, the overlap forms a V neck edged with a stiff collar covered with shiny white fabric patterned with characters. The ribbon ties are centred at the lower ends of inner and outer facings with rounded edges. The sleeves are attached with a vertical seam somewhat beyond the shoulder and have a lower seam shaped in a convex curve, narrowing to the wrist. There is a small underarm reinforcement on each side, with an additional rectangular reinforcement or repair in the left underarm. At waist level there are openings at each side. All seams are concealed.
Under-trousers of unbleached heavy white cotton fabric. The underwear has a wide cotton waistband. There is an opening on the right side, closed by wide ties. The wide pant legs are pleated into the waistband; the three pleats on each side face the centre seam, front and back. A triangular panel is inserted between the legs, ending below the knees. The panel is lined with the same cotton fabric, which extends into adjacent areas of the pant legs. The rest of the underwear is unlined.
Padded under-trousers of fine white cotton fabric, lined with coarser off-white fabric. Pants are angled out from the pleated waistband to the ankles. Waistband has opening at the side, to which are attached narrower long ties. Pleats face towards centre, front and back. Crotch is open from the waistband to the knee, with the opening concealed by additional knee-length panels, each continuous from their insertion into the front waistband to their insertion into the back, extending inward from the opening on the inner edge of each leg. One panel slots inside the other. Inner leg seams each form a convex curve.
