KIRSTEN! and it still has the brownish hangtag "Polynesian Designs Handpainted by Kirsten - Hawaiian Tiki" hung with palm leaf string from it. It looks 70s style. It probably was a woman's first name...or? Any islanders out there who have seen this name on art before? [ Edited by: bigbrotiki on 2003-01-04 16:54 ]
