The feathers have been trimmed evenly across the headband, with exception to the two full-length bright blue feathers at centre.

The tunic is composed of two long, rectangular panels folded in half, and then stitched together on the long edges, leaving an opening at the top for a head, and on the sides for arms. The garment is light beige with ten bands running vertically, the pattern mirrored on each side of the centre line. The bands are composed of various stripes of browns, light blue and black.
Dance cape made from red and white serge trade cloth. Off-white cut-out appliques on red cloth (winged or stepped "S"-shapes and dots), with an off-white fringe border and collar.

Paper model of a boat. The boat is made from folded yellow paper with printed red characters and symbols (swastika). The sails are made from the same paper, and hang from two bamboo masts, which are all strung together by red and burgundy thread. There are bamboo rails on both sides of the boat, each with three vertical bars and one rail. A short braided cord of multi-coloured thread is tied to the prow. Another length of the same thread is tied from the prow, wrapping around both masts, and then is attached to the stern.
Ikat textile with repeating pattern and centre seam down length. Matching pieces of brown weaving with yellow-brown, reddish-brown and black patterning - possibly depicting shrimp, birds, seahorses, lobsters and other creatures - and, divided by a large section of reddish brown across the centre with repeating designs. The two pieces are stitched together, creating a large textile with a centre seam down the length. The textile tapers in at each end, where it is sewn to a woven band, which then extends into dark brown fringe.
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.
