Hi,
I am new to the forum and just signed up. We have had a tiki for about 10 years that we inherited. There is a story behind how it came to us, but I am trying to find out if it could possibly be a Witco. I never (shame on me) even heard of Witco until I was reading a tiki book by Sven ???. It is downstairs and I am to lazy to go and get it at the moment. I saw the furniture that was made for Elvis and it looks like stuff we put in an estate sale. KICK, KICK, KICK!! OK that is me kicking myself for it. We did keep the tiki. He is about 7-8 feet tall. Again, it is downstairs. I can measure later. It is very heavy. It sort of reminded me of a telephone pole. I read about the burned? look that they were making. I will try to post photos, but if they dont* dint don't donut font DOT Don Dot don dot Ont dent Dona Donn dona done Dons Mont cont dolt dong dons dost wont work, I will have to wait till tonight to get help posting them. There should be 2 photos. A top and a bottom. The top photo is not good because of the light coming thru the window. I also need to take a better photo with the entire tiki in it. Also, the hat on top of him does not belong there. It is the cone top of a grass reed umbrella that goes outside.
Thanks
