Embroidered shirt with short unfolded stand-up collar. The central panel is decorated with light pink embroidery of two mirror images on either side of the shirt with large scrolls filled with vine and leaf patterns and undulating linear shapes. The outer interiors of the scroll embroidery are decorated with white cut-out holes from the shirt fabric. The front of the shirt fastens by means of plastic buttons. The cuffs of the sleeves fasten with three pearlescent buttons on each outer edge. The collar has a manufacturers tag (Executive) attached on the inner back side.

Cream-coloured and highly embroidered shirt. The collar, front and back torso panels and sleeves consist of cream-coloured mesh embroidered with white thread in a floral pattern. The shirt closes halfway down the front with three square, golden buttons. The button inside the collar is pearlescent and white. The right sleeve cuff also fastens with a square, golden button, and the left with an elongated spherical, gold button. A manufacturer’s tag (Tesoro's) is sewn to the inside back of the collar.

Christening gown with collar. The dress is cream-coloured with embroidered decoration down front and back in panels. The bottom hem is in a stepped scallop shape with embroidered designs. On either side of the central back panel of embroidery are four sets of white mesh ribbons set into the fabric. The top back section of the bodice is embroidered with a large floral design with mesh insets. Two large white ribbon roses are fixed to the seam of the bodice and the skirt. The collar consists of two layers of sheer fabric embroidered around the borders and ties with a white satin ribbon. The lower layer also has an inset of white mesh ribbon, and both layers have scalloped and embroidered edges. The front of the dress fastens with two small pearlescent plastic buttons. The sleeves of the gown are gathered at the cuffs and have scalloped, embroidered edges.

54 beads strung on a metal wire, with metal clasp at one end and loop on the opposite. Each bead is carved from tusk and shaped into a oblong orb. The surface of the beads has been polished to a shine. Colour varies in each bead, and is often mottled, from dark amber to light yellow. (Part b is a detached bead. Parts c-d are the old clasp: two round plastic tube-shaped pieces that screw together, and each has a hole in the end.)

Short-sleeved, light green cotton shirt with dark green floral design and five white plastic buttons. Shirt opens at the front, with button closure. Neck has a starched collar. A large pocket is sewn on at the front left chest. Sleeves are hemmed. Small slits at both sides at bottom hem.

String puppet (marioneta) of the character Neptune with carved wood face, a pointed beard tipped with a painted shell, pink lips, a long nose, black plastic eyes, sharply defined brow, short forehead and prominent ears. Small shells cover the scalp. A thin wooden stick protrudes from the back of the head and is the only method of controlling the puppet. Puppet’s torso is paper mache. Arms and hands are wood. Torso and arms are covered by decoupage in patterns coloured blue and red, while hands are painted light blue. The creature’s bottom is made entirely of thin, white, flowing plastic sheeting. A long blue cape attaches at the shoulder and hip by a beaded cross-chest belt and falls the length of the plastic bottom. Puppet’s hands and face are delicately carved and detailed. The trident (part b) is aluminum, with a long staff and three pronged head. The whole is wrapped with brass wire, with clear beads threaded on intermittently. Each prong is topped by a gold triangle.

Necklace of cowrie shells with a gourd pendant. A double line of cowrie shells makes up the majority of the chain, strung on plastic fishing line. At the bottom are three pairs of shells interspersed with three strands of plastic beads in black red and white. A small brown gourd hangs below this, covered in a loosely woven covering of raffia, with a raffia tassel hanging below. The gourd is embellished with three evenly spaced decorations of a cowrie shell surrounded by a circle of beads.

Staff made of thick, stiff strands of dried grass, wrapped with raffia in an open weave to make up the handle. From the bottom protrudes a tuft of raffia, wrapped with a band of woven white fabric and grey plastic twine. Two circular patches of raffia are attached close to the base, topped with cowrie shells arranged in a flower motif. The top of the staff is covered in unbleached cotton, edged with two kinds of braided synthetic banding. Attached to the cotton are three small gourd rattles, also wrapped in open raffia weaving, each with a single cowrie shell and plastic bead decoration. Three lines of cowrie shells are glued to the cotton between the gourds.

Filá headdress. Gourd headpiece, with hanging raffia cover. The half gourd is decorated with lace around its rim and across to the top centre where it wraps around a protruding lip. On the body between the strips of lace are woven circles of raffia beneath flower shaped arrangements of cowrie shells and plastic beads. Out the top protrusion emerges a stiff tuft of raffia held together by a wrap of grey plastic twine. From the lower rim of the gourd hang thick, metre long strands of raffia, entirely encircling the headdress so that the fringe hangs down evenly over the wearer’s front and back.

Pearly queen costume hat. Black wool hat with a wide brim, edged top and bottom with white plastic buttons sewn on with black thread. An upright triangular panel at front holds different sized white buttons, surrounding one of gold and pink-grey abalone. The crown of the hat is covered with a mass of long white and black ostrich(?) feathers that trail slightly down the back. The interior of the hat is dark burgundy wool, undecorated.
