Description
"Tuesday, April 10, 1906 [underlined] In the last few days, some ethnographic objects came into my possession: ear ornaments of the Masai. They are made of clay and smeared with red clay. The latter is mixed with cattle tallow, and the items emit a terrible smell. Into the clay, some blue and white glass beads are embedded. Hair serves as tassels. 1 piece = 25 Heller [Drawing] Bells as they are worn around the Goma [dance]. Well over 50 pieces arranged on a strip of fur. All handmade and hammered from round iron sheets. For 50 bells I paid 3 Rupie 75. [Two detail drawings]" [translation]

Description
In 1934, the former director of the Biological Imperial Institute for Agriculture and Forestry (Biologische Reichsanstalt für Land- und Forstwirtschaft) Karl Braun (1870–1935) gave the so-called “Kolonialsammlung Braun” (Colonial Collection Braun) to the Hanseatic City of Stade, or rather its representative, the then mayor Hans Arthur Meyer (1884–1961). See the file „Transfer of a colonial collection from the senior government councillor Professor Dr. Karl Braun in Stade to the City of Stade” („Überlassung einer Kolonialsammlung vom Oberregierungsrat Professor Dr. Karl Braun in Stade an die Stadt Stade") at the Lower Saxony State Archives Stade (Niedersächsischen Landesarchiv Standort Stade).
