Croaker Fish Maw, Red-Mouth Fish Maw and Indonesian White Flower Fish Maw: identification and appraisal guide
Photograph the fish maw item and packaging for Croaker Fish Maw, Red-Mouth Fish Maw and Indonesian White Flower Fish Maw together before taking separate close-ups of the visible details.

Identification details
- Product name: Croaker Fish Maw, Red-Mouth Fish Maw and Indonesian White Flower Fish Maw
- Category: fish maw
- Marks and details to photograph: the variety, origin, thickness, cut, dimensions, weight and processing characteristics
A direct check of the fish maw item should find the exact product name and the visible markings on the fish maw item. That detail helps separate Croaker Fish Maw, Red-Mouth Fish Maw and Indonesian White Flower Fish Maw from a similarly named item.
Photographs and condition
Show the packaging beside the item, then photograph full lot, each piece, both sides, thickness, cut texture, dimensions, weight and packaging labels. Keep each close-up connected to one clear overall image.
To record condition clearly, photograph dryness, oiliness, colour, fibres, insect damage, mould spots, odour and packaging. Separate visible condition from assumptions about age or rarity.
Storage, accessories and handover
For safe short-term care, keep every piece dry, cool and protected from insects. Do not wash, trim or rearrange the lot before it is photographed.
Until handover, keep every piece with its original bag, label, receipt and weight information.
