Necklace | Photographer: Oleg Kuchar | Rights management: Museum Ulm
Attribution - NonCommercial - ShareAlike 4.0 InternationalNecklace made from braided plant fibre cord with a knotted loop as a clasp. The cord necklace is decorated with nassa snail shells and dog teeth. The object comes from the collection of the pharmacist, writer and doctor Albert Daiber (1857 - 1928), who travelled to the South Seas from April to September 1900, visiting German and British colonial territories. Stops included Australia, the Bismarck Archipelago, the eastern part of the island of New Guinea, the Caroline and Mariana Islands and China (Hong Kong). He described his experiences in the 1902 travelogue "Eine Australien- und Südseefahrt". Albert Daiber emigrated to Chile in 1909. Before that, he handed over the objects he had collected on his journey to Otto Leube in Ulm, who initially kept the collection and then donated it to the Museum of the City of Ulm as a deposit after Daiber's death in 1930.
