Langafonua Women's Association Handicraft Centre

Wood has been a scarcity in Tonga for a long time and therefore wood carvings are becoming increasingly prized, due to the decrease in forest timbers. For those truly interested in purchasing fine handicrafts, visit the Women’s Handicraft Centre.

Tongan National Centre

Exceptional examples of traditional craft can be seen at the Tongan National Centre at Tofoa. Souvenirs, carvings in wood, shell and bone are prized and one of the best places to pick up excellent carvings at reasonable prices is Art of Tonga, located in the Fund Management Building on Taufa’ahau Road. It is a small shop, but don’t let that fool you, for the quality of wares they sell is very good. Be mindful when buying that you are purchasing a genuine article.
