Large, flat mask made using a wooden frame. Frame formed using a long, arching piece of wood, which is attached on either end to a shorter, straight piece of wood. Weaving is mounted within the frame. A very thin piece of wood or plant material is used to divide the centre into an hourglass-like shape, as well as give the piece two circular eyes, and a small fish(?). The eyes, fish and sides are filled with clay painted grey and black, with geometric designs on the sides. Extending out from the arch of the frame, and down from the straight edge is long fringe, created by knotting the fibre along thin plaited straps, which are then attached to the frame.
Bentwood box with pitch on the interior. There is a hole drilled in each upper corner of each side. On the front and back of the box there are light carvings - a large triangle at centre fills most of the space, with a row of small upside-down triangles along the upper edge. The box folds have fibre sewn throughout to stitch it together.
White ceramic pipe bowl (part a) with a partly handmade wooden stem (part b). Outside of bowl is oblong and upright, painted on front with a green and brown scene of a buck walking through a forest. The bowl sits inside one arm of the ceramic double shank, with the thin wooden stem emerging from the other. Bit and lip appear to be made from a plastic-like material (possibly added later). A thin tie of twisted wool in green and tan is attached where bowl meets shank.

Rim is cup-shaped, surrounding a smaller mouth, with two small protuberances at either side. It sits on a smaller, bulbous neck. Two small handles span from neck to shoulder, beneath the rim’s protuberances. Half the pot is painted brown, and half a light yellow-white, with a small step design of the opposite side’s colour sitting below the neck on each side.
