    Description

    For your consideration is a very large authentic Tapa cloth; an incredible hand painted piece. This piece is approximately 71" x 73". Fairly certain that it is from Tonga. It is a beautiful example of the handmade Polynesian style of tapa. The detailing in this cloth is truly exceptional.
    Both the front and back have painted patterns. There is some wear, which is to be expected on vintage bark cloths. As you can see from the photos, there are some minor wear marks, creases, smudges, and some wear to the edges and corners. The patterns on this piece are really beautiful and very unique. It would be a very nice display piece in an office or home. Good luck, thanks for looking.
    I am not a professional, but the pictures show the condition. The description is not that of an expert ~ just my own visual observations. I do try to give a detailed explanation of what I observe and have researched as much as I am able.
    Please study the pictures carefully, whereas they are part of the description.
