Museum exhibit of Kanathea patterns, consisting of paper stencils and banana leaf stencils for decorating bark cloth, photographed after 1914 by Arthur Maurice Hocart. The artifacts are identified as being from Taveuni, Fiji. Five specimens of native "tapa" (native cloth), native pottery made from red clay and glazed, head of hair belonging to a "Kai Colo" or mountain man. Circa 1881. Tapa cloth exhibit at an agricultural show and fair in Western Samoa. Photograph taken by Alfred James Tattersall between 1880s-1930s. No need to have a boring bookshelf. Cover it in tapa.
