Description 
One and one half yards of tapa cloth from Western Samoa. It is in very good condition with one or two worn pieces on an edge. On two places there looks as though liquid has been left to dry on the fabric. Colours are mostly tan with a natural fine pattern and with a bold dark tan pattern. Sail shaped with semi-circles in dark brown at the narrow end.
