Girl's pulpul of silk and wool twisted strands atached to cords of plant fibre? The hanging strands are blue and white and are in two distinct sections from the waist cord.
Part (a) is a long tear drop shaped plywood with three dimensional carved wood head attached centre front. Face has eyes outlined in red seeds, hook nose with open nostrils and long feather and fibre rope through wide indented mouth. Back board and head painted with geometric designs in brown, gold, white and black. White feathers double fringe attach to perimeter with twisted fibre band. Secondary face on board has wide smiling mouth. Attached black and white feather, red seed medallion top piece, back has support material of hat and ridge in wood. Four flat wood leaf shapes (b-e) with black and white zigzag markings, cut white feather surrounds them, attached at an angle to a stick bound with fibre and white feather down.
Wool loincloth in an oval-like shape with one straight end, rounded sides and two rounded points at the other end. The cloth is grey with dark blue repeating stripes.
Braided strands that are bound together at the upper mid-way point to create tassels, all of which are being held together and bound across the top to create a fringe-like effect. Has braided and twirled extended ends at either side.
The cloth is rectangular and natural coloured with stripes of red and blue-gray. The blue-gray stripes are wide with diagonal rows of diamonds left natural coloured and painted red. The blue-gray stripes are flanked by thin red ones. The natural coloured spaces in between the stripes are decorated with borders of small blue-gray lines.
The cloth is natural coloured, rectangular and decorated with four panels. The repeated design in each of the four panels is a central line with a circle on both ends and four lines extending from the circle. At both ends, the circle and extending lines are outlined. There are two triangles, one on either side of the central line, their tops together and pointing into the line. In each corner are two half circles. Along the inside of the borders of each panel are short lines. All designs have small gray dots along the edges of the thicker reddish-brown lines. The details of each panel are slightly different: the shading of the repeated motif or the background shading or the number of border lines. The cloth is painted on one side.
The cloth is natural coloured and rectangular with linear designs outlined in black. The design is made up of thick, straight brownish-orange lines decorated on one side with black dots. After every two straight lines there is a motif made of two lines coming together several times to form oval spaces. The motif is decorated with black dots and irregular shapes fill the oval spaces. The cloth is painted on one side but has bled through to the other side.
The cloth is natural coloured and rectangular, decorated with four panels and one side fringe. The repeated motif in each of the four bordered panels is made up of brownish-red lines outlined in black. The motif features long zigzag lines in different formations. Two lines put together form a chain with diamond-shaped openings. One line put along a border creates a row of triangles. One side of the cloth has been repeatedly cut, creating a thick cloth fringe. The cloth is painted on one side.
Skirt composed of a dyed pink stem fringe in two lengths knotted to a plant fibre twine at the waist.
Tapa cloth in a rectangular shape and painted with seven panels, each with bands of zigzag lines that have double hooked shapes emerging from the points and several v shapes, all in light brown and dark grey. The panels each have a border.
