Banana Leaf Tapa and Sugarcane Fiber

Natural Fiber Tapa With Turtle, Moorea, Whale And Tattoo Motifs

Woven from banana leaf fiber and sugarcane fiber, the surface stays textured and naturally matte, a feel you’ll also recognize in this Polynesian tap-tap decor piece.

Pick the motif that fits your space. Turtle, Moorea island, whale, ray, vahine, lizard, tattoo – each option brings a different silhouette, from gentle to bold. This banana leaf tapa keeps the balance: the motif is clear, the fiber stays present, and the overall look remains clean.

Wearing suggestion

Frame it under glass or lean it on a shelf at a slight angle so the fibers catch the light and the motif stays crisp, and for a balanced set, a Marquesan bone decor piece adds a refined contrast.

Care and handling

• Handle with clean, dry hands to protect the natural fibers.
• Avoid long, direct sunlight exposure to reduce fading risk.
• Keep away from high-humidity areas.
• Dust gently with a soft brush or a dry cloth.
• Do not use liquids, sprays, or cleaning products.
