content: Peale catalogue identifies # 1411 - 1434 as: "Masi". Cloth made of bark, worn by the men of the Fiji Islands."

content: Thin white rectangular tapa. Has an open lacey surface with beater marks of three parallel lines visible scattered over the surface. It appears to be one thickness and no seams are noted. The tapa is only partial as it is torn along one short edge. The other three edges are finished with a short fringe cut into the tapa and intermittent groups of long fringe. According to Adrienne Kaeppler, Curator for Oceania Ethnology, this type of tapa would remain undecorated and used as clothing as it is. It would be wrapped around the upper body, then between the legs and drawn up in the back and the remainder would hang down in the back. No original Peale # label was located in 2012.
