Woven headband with feather ornaments. The plain woven band is about 2 cm high, and is stained a light reddish-brown. Two long scarlet feathers with blue tips are each bundled with layered brown then red-yellow feathers at front, and inserted into the woven band by the quill tip. There are fourteen small tube-like stacks of feathers, in black and either red or green layers or stripes, which are all topped by light brown downy feathers. The smaller feather ornaments are hooked through the band's weave by their bent quills, and then the ends are tied with fibre.
Container made from a gourd. Small hollowed-out gourd capped with a circular plug; the plug has a pig tusk extending out of the top. Woven plant fibre wraps around the neck of the gourd in a repeating v-style design, alternating between dark and light browns and bordered by bands of dark brown.
Long knife (part a), with a small knife (pisau raut; part b), and scabbard (part c). The knife blade is convex on one side and slightly concave on the other side, and is decorated with inlaid brass in a series of circles and vines. The blade itself gets gradually wider and then tapers in forming a point in line with the cutting edge. The grip is wrapped with finely woven fibre. The hilt of horn is elaborately carved, with red pigment in the lines, and has two drilled holes for an attachment. The whittling knife (part b) has a small curved blade of steel, with a brass cap marked with illegible text. The shaft is of a dark brown wood which transitions into alternating rings of horn and wood. The slightly curved hilt is elaborately carved. The scabbard is composed of a wood sheath for the sword, and an attached bark sheath for the knife. The wood sheath is composed of two pieces of wood, bound together by woven plant fibre and animal skin. The locket(?) is ornately carved. There is a long carrying strap of plaited plant fibre, and an ornament of shell and thin tassels with beads of pink, blue, green, red and yellow.
