The designs on this jacket from Borneo relate closely to those on the intricately woven baskets from the same area, and are also found on local ikat-patterned and beaded textiles and garments. Here, the designs are woven and embroidered. The jacket is fastened at the front with three round buttons made out of conch shell. There are no buttonholes, which are a European feature. Instead a braided string is wrapped around the back of the button. The simple shape of the jacket, with small projecting shoulder-pieces, is also found in garments made of bark-cloth or other materials.
