Traditional Polynesian Tapa Cloth Pattern Neck Tie

Wear this bit of Polynesian history in black, greys, and cream. Tapa cloth (called Kapa in Hawaii) is a barkcloth, decorated with geometric grids and repeating motifs, which was originally worn as clothing and/or as adornment for ceremonial items. The intricate geometric patterns of this tie combined with the subtle color scheme make it the perfect gift for a loved one who wants to wear a touch of aloha without the usual intense colors. It definitely has a retro/Mid-Century Modern vibe. (Matching socks are availabe.)
