Description | Necklace composed of large number (greater than 60 strands) of very finely braided human hair and a large central ivory lei niho palaoa pendant; Only small number of hair strands pass through pendant, with remainder doubled back on either left or right side and tied into bundle at top with native cordage (later augmented with cotton string); Necklaces of this type were worn only by individuals of royal lineage (both men and women) on ceremonial occasions as a symbol of power and influence, and also reportedly by [male] chiefs in battle; Such leis were frequently traded in the later 19th century; The pendant is carved in the shape of a tongue symbolizing the wearer’s oratory and leadership skills; According to Anthony JP Meyer (1995) necklaces of this type are made from a single length of 8-ply, square braided hair, with each section of the braid comprising 50 to 100 strands of hair each. | |

Description | Large rectangular fragment of kapa, made by beating strips of bark into thin sheets and then overlapping the sheets to form a larger cloth; Extant fragment is a natural off-white or tan color on its back face and pink on the front face; Pink color is possibly derived from bits of red "turkey cloth", a cotton fabric introduced by missionaries which the natives raveled into threads which were then beaten into the kapa to produce this distinctive pink color; No discernible watermark is present; One long edge of fragment is folded over and secured with two parallel rows of hand stitching with plied white thread that extend across entire width of fragment; Fold line and line for hand stitching are marked on reverse in pencil; Hand stitched threads are tied off at one end, indicating an original end of the finished cloth or garment; That same end is also marked by a pencil line, indicating where the larger cloth was to be cut; Opposite short end of fragment is also cut but lacks any pencil park, while second long edge of fragment has been torn. | |

Description | Rectangular kapa cloth made from strips of mulberry bark that have been beaten very smooth and overlapped and then completely dyed yellow; Design field of cloth is bilaterally divided down the center along its long axis, with one half undecorated and the other half stamped with a series of rectangular blocks arranged in a checkerboard pattern; Each stamped block is composed of smaller geometric designs, applied by repeatedly stamping with a narrow bamboo stamp, which allowed for a change in the actual design as well as the color within a design block; There are four different designs, including the kalahale or bent knee design, a set of interlocking Vs in sets of four; Some of the blocks are completely a rust brown color, some are completely black (although largely faded to blue), and some are a combination of the two colors; This kapa cloth is a complete child’s or young woman’s wrap-around skirt, worn with the design along the bottom and the undecorated upper side folded down and over a belt; The degree to which this skirt is decorated suggests that it belonged to someone of high class. | |

Description | Rectangular floor mat woven as two separate mats that were then joined together back to back and stitched together along the edges with thread to form a double-layered mat, and a supplementary selvage added to cover the selvages of the individual mats and join them together; Both mats are woven in a diagonal plaiting technique, using natural and dyed pandanus strips as both warp and weft; Top mat shows a large undecorated center, framed by a narrow border that includes floral arrangements in each corner and two smaller pairs of floral bouquets along each side, with all motifs joined by a single row of contiguous diamonds; Designs are woven in dyed-red pandanus with dyed yellow-gold accents on flowers, all on a plain undyed background; All four edges of mat are framed by a second border of contiguous cross-hatched triangles, also in red; Lower mat shows a bold plaid pattern in natural and dyed red and black, and yellow fibers; The top mat on this example and on CAS 2006-0003-0010 are virtually identical except for the smaller motifs along the sides of the inner border, suggesting that both mats were probably woven by the same person. | |

Description | Rectangular floor mat woven as two separate mats that were then joined together back to back and stitched together along the edges with thread to form a double-layered mat, and a supplementary selvage added to cover the selvages of the individual mats and join them together; Both mats are woven in a diagonal plaiting technique, using natural and dyed pandanus strips as both warp and weft; Top mat shows a large undecorated center, framed by a narrow border that includes floral arrangements in each corner and two smaller pairs of stars and floral bouquets along each side, with all motifs joined by a stylized vine motif; Designs are woven in dyed-red pandanus with dyed yellow-gold accents on flowers, all on a plain undyed background; All four edges of mat are framed by a second border of contiguous cross-hatched triangles, also in red; Lower mat shows a bold plaid pattern in natural and dyed red and black, and yellow fibers; The top mat on this example and on CAS 2006-0003-0009 are virtually identical except for the smaller motifs along the sides of the inner border, suggesting that both mats were probably woven by the same person. | |

Description | Rectangular piece of tapa cloth cut from a much larger piece, made by beating strips of paper mulberry bark to paper thin sheets, and overlapping them until the desired width and length was achieved; This piece measures four langanga (hand-measured unit) in length, as indicated by the numbers along its outer borders, and could have been part of a 50 langanga cloth; Overall cloth is divided into rectangular panels of different sizes that extend across the entire cloth in columns and rows; Smaller panels along outer borders are decorated with alternating images of a star with crescent moon and that of a braided fiber lei, with the even-numbered panels also marked with their measurement (e.g., 2, 4, etc.); Remaining width of the cloth is divided into 5 columns of panels (3 smaller panels and 2 wide panels); Each panel in the column adjacent to the border is decorated with the royal seal of Tonga which is rendered rather haphazardly with little attention to complete details; Panels in next column are wide with alternate rows showing a tokelau feletoa design (a chiefly symbol of an elongated lozenge shape) or an series of small contiguous squares topped with row of triangles (symbolism unknown); Small panels in center column are decorated with triangular structure (possibly representing a house) with a rising and/or setting crescent sun on either side; Background of all panels is partially painted brown, with traces of string, indicating that cloth was tied to a working board and secured with sennit fibers as it was being made. | |

Description | Very large rectangular tapa cloth made from strips of mulberry bark that have been beaten into thin sheets, which were then overlapped to form a larger cloth; A background of narrow parallel brown lines indicates the cloth was prepared on worktable that was strung with sennit cord; Design field is divided into 20 rectangular panels arranged in 4 columns and 5 rows; Each row of panels includes 2 narrow panels and a slightly wider panel in the center and along each side; One column of narrow panels is decorated with a motif that resembles a belt with 3 discs on a double chain; The other column of narrow panels is decorated alternately with violin and guitar motifs; In the columns of wider panels, each panel is decorated with one of three different motifs representing hand fans, interspersed by large black dots, representing the fruit of the hea tree; All designs have been stamped onto cloth, probably using a wooden kupesi or rubbing tablet, and then they have been over-painted on front face of cloth; On the narrow panels only the areas around the motifs were rubbed, leaving the surrounding areas a natural off-white color, while on the wider panels the entire area was rubbed, transferring both the motif and the background pattern of parallel lines from the cordage wrapping; "KOE LETA O MALIA MOE KITA" is repeated 2 1/2 times as part of the design along one side of cloth, referring to the belt (leta) and guitar (kita) motifs; Cloth has been cut along all four sides from much larger cloth. | |
