Brown, wooden suspension hook made from four upward curving 'branches', the ends of which are carved into four horse heads. The necks of the horse’s heads are decorated with chiseled parallel grooves. From the mouth of each of the four horse heads there are carved knobs suspended. There is also another set of knobs attached lower down on the horses' necks. The bottom end of these four horse head branches are inserted into the lower end of a central carved vertical pole, into a carved square box shape and are arranged so that they are diametrically opposite each other. At the end of the box there is a projection onto which is attached a wooden knob. The middle section of the hook is comprised of four twisted columns that meet at a mid-point in a carved knot design. The top of the hook is a carved wooden disc where seven carved wooden knobs are attached. The knobs are the same as those found in the horses’ mouth and on the horses’ neck. An iron ring is attached to the disc that is used to suspend the hook.

Fire starting kit consisting of four components. Part a: Two caps on the either end of a small rope which attach to either end of a bamboo stalk (part b). These caps come from a single silk worm cocoon that has been cut in half. There is a flat, rectangular piece of iron that is used with a flint (part d) attached to the length of rope. The iron is curved into a hook-shape on one corner in order to allow the iron to hang off the piece of rope. Part b: Length of bamboo stalk, hollow at one end to allow for the storage of parts c-d, inside there is a bundle off-white un-spun silk fibre. The closed end of the bamboo stalk is burnt and blackened. This end is the carbonated end used to light a dried silk tuft to ignite a fire. Part c: A tobacco leaf rolled up and bent at one end. Part d: Piece of stone used as a flint. It is mostly black with streaks of brown and there is a brown line that runs down the centre of the stone. The edges are mostly jagged, but there is one smooth edge.

Iron roof cross. Traditionally, roof crosses are put on top of newly constructed houses for protection. The bottom of the cross is plain and has a pointed end. Above this section, there is a curved banner with the year stencilled through the metal. This banner is suspended between two angels in profile. The angels have black hair and shoes. Their wings and torso are painted pink and their skirts are red. They have their arms bent at the elbow, as if in prayer. Further up the cross, there is a gold, multi-tiered chalice. This chalice seems to have the sun emerging out of its top. At the intersection of the horizontal and vertical portions of the cross, there is a large red heart. This heart has a small, white cross emerging from the top of it. There are also yellow rays of sun extending outwards from behind the heart. On either end of the horizontal portion of the cross, there are grey shapes with hollow centres that resemble three leaf clovers. At the top of the cross there is a grey fleur de lis. There is a piece of tape on the back of the image with a number written on it.
