Definitely Tongan, particularly the birds, insignia and trees on the second. Samoan (siapo) and Fijian Tapa is almost always composed of tightly packed geometric motifs and has very little open space. We have a pretty big Tongan community here (possibly more than in Tonga) and this stuff is very common. |
