Basket with lid. Small oblong basket is tightly woven in an even weave, with a line of encircling images showing two large whales with a pair of pink birds to the side, and two boats with three sailors each on the opposite side. Dashes of pink and green circle the top of the basket and a line of green around the bottom. The lid (part b) shows two large birds to either side of the raised centre, surrounded by a pink and black line.

Rectangular wooden quillwork box with lid (part b). Box is made of birch bark and covered with quillwork forming chevron patterns. The two short sides of the box have a curved lip. The lid also has a dense pattern of quillwork over it.

A light brown woven basketry hat. Done in a large weave, with plain cedar bark weaving across the flat top. Below the tapered top section, the hat gradually widens toward the flared rim.

Basket sampler showing four sections of different types of basket weaving. Openwork basket is tall and rectangular, with a rounded base and walls that flare slightly toward rim. Large loops are attached at the upper layer, through which are passed two tumpline ropes that serve as a handle. A skinned ermine is sewn to the handle (with its nose and whiskers still present). Cedar oil was applied to the basketry after completion.

Birchbark basket (part a) with decorated lid (part b). Basket is round with straight sides, base and rim separate pieces of bark that have been stitched on with root ties. A scalloped bark ring has been similarly stitched on, beneath the root-wrapped lip. Lid construction is similar to basket, with a strip of birch for rim and a top piece stitched on with root. Lid design is a flower pattern in an ‘x’ shape made from dyed root. Underside of lid has a birch lining, covering the bottom root stitches.

Headdress of vibrantly coloured macaw, toucan and parrot feathers. Long bright blue feathers create a brim at front of headdress, coming to a point at centre. These are topped by a layer of shorter green and yellow feathers. Above the brim stands a crown of feathers arranged around the circular headband, very tall at front centre and shortening toward sides, lined in front with a set of shorter green and red feathers matching those on the brim. The bark headband is covered with small multicoloured feathers, with red fibre at the bottom. Three tall feathers stand upright on the rear of the headband. Below are tied several long strands of fibre, some threaded with small white glass beads. Intermittently down each strand are attached feathers in various sizes, some in small groupings gathered at their quills by short lengths of palm tubes, as well as elongated, dark brown seeds. Together the strands create a dense layer down the back of the wearer. To both sides of the headband are attached a string of seeds, ending in a flower shape, created by green, white and red feathers.

The dye is red and purple.

The dark blue is red, orange, and yellow.
