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.
Full size hammock. Hammock is made of many thin strands of rolled palm fibre running parallel on the horizontal plane, doubled over at the ends. Dyed and undyed stripes alternate. Two very long ties are strung through the fold at each end. Along the body of the hammock the palm fibre is bound by white wool braided in a fishtail pattern, running perpendicular to the palm. The last two braids on each end are dyed red. The braids finish in thin tassels that hang from the edges of the hammock.
