The inside of the house is well decorated. The milk container 'Gorfa' is made from the root fiber of special a plant 'Ergamsa', also known as asparagus. The container's holder belts 'Sephan'. The 'manoo' on the floor is made from plants and animal skins and is used for keeping clothes from burning when we use incense to fumigate. 'Golla' is the skin of cattle which is used in some parts of the house.
