Know your Ta'ovala
There is a secrete language wrapped up in a Tongan Ta’ovala or Mat. Everything from how and where it's worn, to its size, the grade of the weave, it's decorations and even how old the mat is, tells a tale at a simple glance.
And No-where else in the pacific are mats or Ta’ovalas worn so often, Queen Salote Tupou III even ordered the Taʻovala to become part of a Tongan civil servants' uniform.
In this ‘How to’ our Kwi -coconet guide Ben Work learns Ta’ovala 101 from local Tongan expert Favine Fakahau Lumsden who explains the do's and dont's of Ta’ovala wearing.

Just a question out of curiosity. I am a descedant of Tongan. But have gotten more deep into Fijian roots. Is it still okay for me to wear a Ta'ovala?
@mrfin02
@mrfin02 2 года назад
Depends on how far back you say you have Tongans roots from. If it's 200+ back. Then unfortunately no
