A small circular perforation has been drilled into the end where te kora has been threaded through. A series of up to six or seven tiny ground discs of te nana have been threaded in between each wiin te kua kewe. Towards the ends of the Neck ornament this amount has reduced to one or two discs of te nana. They are dark brown in colour and hard in material. Four small knots of te kora have been made throughout the Neck ornament to either increase its length or hold together as one. The Neck ornament has been left unfastened and the selvedge's of kora are short and fibrous.
