Siapo or tapa (bark-cloth) is an ancient art form that's passed through generations. Handmade from the bark of the mulberry tree and decorated using natural dyes with symbols reflecting things in the environment, siapo was traditionally a common form of clothing. Today, siapo is mostly worn during ceremonies and presented as a gift item. Let's join Faapito as she demonstrates the ancient art form. #beautifulsamoa #samoanculture
