The sequence of shell discs are patterned, alternating between an off-white conus shell disc then a mid to dark brown coconut shell disc. Some segments of te mwae show where two coconut shell discs have been threaded together. The patterned sequence has been repeated across the Neck ornament entirely. Te mwae is unfastened. A loose kora is visible where a knot has been made to prevent the discs from moving and then another knot at the end of the kora to prevent the pinnules coming loose. The other end of te mwae shows a stubbed knot of te kora. The discs are similar in diameter and depth with some discs showing.
