I love that Lamp Kono! If I remember right you have a couple of real nice lamps? I have quite a lamp collection from the 50's and 60's, but so far none that are Hawaiian or tiki. ( I've made a couple myself, but don't count those) I'm putting on a full court press this winter to come up with a nice tropical type lamp.

Sweet Daddy Tiki, I have a figurehead very close in appearance to yours. They are called TOTO IUS (Nguzu Nguzu) and were place just above to the waterline on the war canoes. Here is a pretty good site where you can read more http://www.tribalarts.com/feature/solomon/


You see things and say, Why? But I dream things that never were, and say, Why not!
