Small, rectangular, cream-coloured textile with fringe on the short sides. The gauze-like brocade has lines of light beige, and red and dark blue geometric designs along the sides and ends. Small tufts of light blue, black, red fibre are knotted into the ends of the twisted fringe.
Fragment of light brown fabric with a design in dark brown, and a section of solid dark brown and solid red-brown.
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.
Woven bag composed of a long rectangular panel, folded almost in half, and then stitched up the sides. The bag is woven with a geometric design. There is a long woven strap attached at the lower edge of the bag's opening.
Fragment of a mountain goat twill weave blanket. Three of the edges are cut. Strips of red fabric and black fabric are woven into the twill; the red strips go across one direction, the black stips run across the other.
Four-sided woven basket. A large rectangular top, which tapers in to a small rectangular base. The sides and rim are beaded with cherry bark and cedar bark in a repeating flower-like design, alternating between dark red and black with off-white. The rim of the basket is beaded as well. There are five loops of rawhide tied through the sides of the basket, one on each of three sides, two on the fourth side.
Woven tunic (cushma) with stripes. 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.
Neck ornament composed of seven pieces of skinned birds. At centre, the longest skin with short, black ruffled feathers attached to more skins by twisted strings tied at either end. One side has two larger mostly black with a yellow band and some red, and a smaller yellow and orange skin with red and black accents. On the other side, three different skins are attached: vibrant teal and black spotted; black and yellow striped and a small hummingbird(?) skin black with vibrant teal and blues. One strand of fibre is dyed burgundy, and twisted together with off-white.
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 woven tumpline with repeating geometric pattern. Design is of repeated triangles, in light purple and red or burgundy, which form V-shapes and lines with a yellow background. Each end is finished with alternating bands of heathered black and light green, which tapers to warp fibres that are braided to create the carrying straps. Knots have been tied at both ends.
