Large painted tapa cloth. Design is painted in a grid of 6 rows long by 3.5 rows wide. Almost entire cloth is stamped with dense designs in a reddish brown pigment. Darker designs are painted over that. Lower layer shows light brown wavy and diagonal lines, boxed circles, flowers, etc. Of the more dominant grid patterns, the top band is split in two with a small square of hearts one side and a square formed from triangles on the other; the next band shows designs made from diamonds and flattened triangles; the next shows an oval, formed by two crescent shapes, in between two single crescents with a four pointed star and a diamond on either side. The three bands then repeat again. The rough, frayed edges of the textile are unpainted.
Stoneware vase with two side lobes or 'wings.' The wings have rounded bodies tapering to flat edges that are pointed at the top corners, and then curve down to meet round flat pedestals. The two wings are attached to a bumpy diamond shaped core. The inside of the hollow core is shaped like an irregular tube. Stylised signature on base.
