Here's the Tapa Cloth i was telling you about. There's 2 pieces. Very big too.


Anyways the story behind these: My grandparents both were stationed at the American Somoa during WW2 and they managed to purchase these beautiful tapa cloths from the natives. Mind you back in WW2 American Somoa was still very very indigenous. But my family had these laying in an old trunk down here in the basement and i just found em. Awesome stuff i say!
