Mat
Up until the South Sea islanders came into contact with European missionaries and settlers, women’s clothing was made from two woven dress mats, which reached down to the ankles. The two dress mats were held in place on the hips by a belt several meters long. The front dress mat was put on first.

Donated by Eugen Brandeis (Imperial Governor of the Marshall Islands) April 1900, collected by Antonie Brandeis (Jaluit) /Donated by Eugen Brandeis (Imperial Governor of the Marshall Islands) April 1900, collected by Antonie Brandeis (Jaluit)
This Marshallese dress mat for a child has not been given an old inventory number. It therefore does not appear in the old inventory book. It is similar in size and type to the "child's mat" mentioned there (II/1254). In the New Inventory Book, it is assigned to a group of 4 smaller dress mats, which are II/1252-1255. As these mats all belong to the Brandeis collection and the mats are generally found in pairs, it can be assumed with great certainty that II/1255 is the mat belonging to II/1254.
