Set of wooden clappers and accompanying cloth bag (part b). Instrument consists of three long, rectangular pieces of lacquered wood, the topmost with a central raised spine, the others flat. An inscription in Chinese characters is carved into the wood of the top piece, filled with green paint. The clappers are joined together with a thick, braided red cotton rope looped through two holes bored through each piece of wood, and decoratively knotted on one side with tassels falling from the ends. The cotton carrying bag is blue with a white pattern of foliage and dots, and has a pull cord at the top.

Birch bark basket with handle. Basket is constructed of a single piece of bark bent and cut to create walls that have been stitched together with thin strips of bark up both short sides. A thin reed of wood is strapped to the top by bark to form a lip. The exterior is embossed with cross shapes and swirls on the ends, and a large tree-like motif at centre on both sides. Scallops line the lip. The interior is undecorated. A wide handle of yellow-brown canvas is attached to the basket by thongs of leather, held together at centre by a twist of wire and tied on the interior. The strap's length can be modified by use of a metal loop.

Lid (part b) is of similar shape and construction with adhesive attaching the bark to the wooden top. Design is a black dotted line around red and black leaf shapes and triangles.
