Picked up this tapa yesterday, and it's huge. It's a little strange though. The imagery seems Western. I don't know much about tapa cloth. Can any body fill me in on what I have here? Trying to convince the little lady to let me keep it. The woman at the estate sale suggested cutting it up and selling some of it and keeping the rest of it for myself, but that makes me cringe a bit.

These look like eagles and lions to me, maybe a crown? I dunno...

This looks like a crest or seal but I don't recognize it. The trees, sun and moon and star seem like odd imagery too.

Also not sure what to make of the birds and numbers going up the sides...
