Bark cloth and feather headband made of a wide strip of undecorated bark cloth, folded over. Short feathers on hide are sewn to and covering the exterior. Some areas of feather are dyed in green or red, alongside natural black and white feathers. Long feathers are sewn to the bark cloth, rising high above the headband, taller at centre, declining in height toward the sides. All are dyed blue on their fronts, with the backs of the tallest coloured gold, and shorter coloured red.
Wooden feast dish (parts a-i) consisting of three large, deeply carved bowls (parts a-c), the whole forming a supernatural creature called a sisiutl. The bowls each sit of 2 sets of wheels that are loosely joined by mortise and tenon arrangements. The two end bowls (parts a and c) each depict the head and body of the serpent with a large protruding snout, carved eyes, ears and bared teeth. The middle bowl (part b) has a carved and painted human-like face on the sides, with two hands on the joins. Two large ladles (parts d-e) balance in the mouths of the sisuitl, projecting outward like tongues, held in by their handles. On top of the heads are four horn-like extensions (parts f-i), one at each end and two in the middle section. The bowl is painted with black, white, green, red and yellow design elements. There are holes in the overlapping slotted pieces for dowels (not incl. with dish).
