As from what I could see (and I don't see the photos you seem to have posted here), there are walls made of bamboo, Maori style carvings plus three cone-shaped basket weave tribal masks, but I can't tell which culture they represent (Vanuatu? or even maybe African?). As for the colorfulness of the Maori carvings, it must be remarked, that Maori art, especially of newer origin, does indeed use a wide and colorful range of paints. So this set is not just mindless studio production, in my opinion.
