Multicoloured wool blanket, constructed from five narrow (about 21 cm) strips of equal length, aligned side by side, and sewn together edge to edge. Each of these strips is woven in a repeated pattern of narrow horizontal stripes, of black, red and two shades of blue, alternating with wider stripes of off-white and orange-yellow. On the right side of the blanket, the off-white and orange-yellow stripes are over-printed with repeated cross-shaped (+-shaped) motifs in red and dark blue. When sewing the strips together, no attempt was made to align the patterns, resulting in a random design. The reverse side is the same but without the cross motifs. The blanket is bordered on three sides with narrow (9 and 18 cm) strips of multicoloured striped wool textile. The ends are faced and bound with red cotton velveteen, printed with floral motifs in black. On the reverse side of the blanket, a 1 cm wide band of black fabric that has been printed with small white and green motifs is sewn where the border and the main body of the blanket meet.
Multicoloured wool blanket, constructed from six narrow (about 23 cm) strips of equal length, aligned side by side, and sewn together edge to edge. Each of these strips is woven in a repeated pattern of narrow horizontal stripes, of black, red and two shades of blue, alternating with wider stripes of off-white and orange-yellow. On the right side of the blanket, the off-white and orange-yellow stripes are over-printed with repeated cross-shaped (+-shaped) motifs in red and dark blue. When sewing the strips together, no attempt was made to align the patterns, resulting in a random design. The reverse side is the same but without the cross motifs. One end of the blanket is bound with bright purple silk jacquard textile; the opposite end is bound with pale pink silk jacquard textile, and at the centre of this end, a small (10 cm) diamond shaped decorative patch made of two squares of patterned silk textile is stitched on.
Central spoke running through two inverted crown-shaped structures, both attached at centre by a flattened globe. Each crown-shaped part has four outside curved bars with plant motifs and a plain inner spoke.
Long, narrow, coarsely woven wool sash. Cloth is predominantly red, which is patterned at each end with large, off-white round symbols. The symbols have been applied to the textile using a clamp-resist dyeing technique. There is a dark grey-black border (about 14 cm) at each end, and the ends are trimmed with very long twisted fringes of various lengths (the longest being c. 82.5 cm), some grey-black, some red, some off-white; the fringe strands are embellished at regular intervals with small tufts of wool, made into tassels.
A metal ring with a round red bead-like setting that has a hole through the top centre. The design of the setting includes small bosses around the bottom edge surrounding the red setting and a cluster of slightly larger bosses at each side of the ring along the rope-like bands. The band is adjustable.
