Subject: Tapa
Can anyone provide information regarding care and preservation of a Tapa cloth from Tonga. The piece in question is dated 1932. It is in relatively decent condition but has some holes, and appears somewhat fragile. I would appreciate suggestions for framing this piece so that it can be displayed.
