Pyramid-like basket, with circular opening and rectangular base. Has a short foot rim, made of rattan(?) strips. Basket opening shaped with three exterior coils of rattan(?). The top one is wrapped in dyed dark brown plant fibre, the middle is a wide, naturally coloured strip, and the bottom one is a thin dark brown strip. Coils are all tied together with dark brown plant fibre and plastic. Basket is naturally coloured and woven in alternating sections of horizontal and vertical chevrons. Two rods are intertwined through the basket, to secure braided shoulder straps. Rods form an “M” shape on the front and an upside down “U” on the back. Some sections of the “M” and “U” are only visible from the interior of the basket. The outer lines of the “M”, visible from the exterior, are wrapped in dark brown plant fibre. Above them, overtop where the rods are visible from the interior, are two zigzag designs, done in dark brown. Straps are attached to the front bottom edge of the basket and form an “X” shape. The straps extend overtop of the basket, loop through the rods on the basket back, and then circle around the base of the basket.

A fishing basket [a] with lid [b] and rope [c]. The basket has a circular rim and square base. Very thin, flat strips of bamboo are woven across wider vertical strips to comprise the basket's main body. The weave is close, with only small gaps. The bottom of the basket is woven from wider bamboo strips, in a perpendicular fashion. Two thicker pieces of bamboo form an X-shaped base. The basket has four cylindrical feet, one at each corner. A thin strip extends from the base of each foot, and is woven into the basket so as to attach it. The rim of the basket is made from two larger, horizontal strips of bamboo that wrap all the way around. They are secured by groups of three thinner vertical strips staggered at 2-2.5 centimetre intervals. A circular piece of wood with a cut out centre is secured to the inner rim of the basket by four small nails. The top of the wood is covered with bamboo strips, which have been woven in a chevron pattern. The lid of the basket is small, flat, and circular in shape. It is made from a piece of wood, and is covered with bamboo strips which have been woven in a chevron pattern. The handle of the lid is a thin, straight block of bamboo with downward curved ends. It extends slightly past the base of the lid on both sides, and is secured through the bottom by three small nails. There is a small hole in one side of the handle. The lid was previously attached to the body of the basket via a braided, purple rope, however all three pieces are now separate. The basket and lid are both covered in a clear lacquer.

A fish basket, or pouch, woven of palm leaf. The pouch is triangular in shape, with a wide bottom that tapers to a narrow, circular mouth. The palm leaves are arranged in vertical rows, with small gaps between them. The leaves are folded in half, with the folded sections acting as the bottom of the pouch. Small vines are woven in perpendicular rows across the leaves, so as to hold the pouch together. The vines are woven through the gaps in the leaves, going over the first leaf, under the next, and then over again in an alternating pattern. This pattern is repeated every 5-7 centimetres, for a total of nine rows. At the neck of the pouch, a vine has been woven around its circumference multiple times. At the mouth of the pouch, the palm leaves are folded over to form a horizontal rim, and secured with thin, cotton thread. The thread wraps around the rim of the pouch multiple times, and in opposite directions, forming X shapes. This cross-stitch lashing occurs at 1-2 centimetre intervals. A long piece of rope is knotted at the mouth of the basket, enabling the user the carry or attach the basket to their waist. The rope was previously green, but most of the colour has faded away. At the bottom corner of the pouch, a light blue fibre has been wound repeatedly around a vine.

A fishing basket with a round rim and square base. The basket is woven from thin, flat strips of bamboo about half a centimetre wide. The strips are lighter in the centre and darker on the edges, and plaited in a diagonal, criss-crossing pattern which continues until the rim of the basket. The weave is open, with centimetre large gaps between the strips. The rim is braided from multiple strips, and approximately two centimetres wide. At the bottom centre of the basket, two thicker pieces of bamboo are crossed in an X shape. The rim of the basket is a braided band od the same
