I recently came into a stash of 33 of the hard-to-find Trader Vic's Menehune compotes. They are unused in their original boxes. These have a China stamp on them so I know that they are not vintage. I don't know though if they were made 2 years or 20 years ago.

This compote measures 4 1/2" in height and 5 1/2" in width and holds 20 oz. The glaze is a very attractive amberish yellow. The black markings are glazed and the white is cold painted.

There are 9 Menehunes flanking the perimeter and the pedestal features 2 pineapples & other miscellaneous fruits. This has always been one of my personal favorites and it is relatively rare and hard-to-find.

Shortly, I'll be posting a hidden url for Tiki Central members only where you can purchase one of these from me. It will be a strict limit of 1 per person and the price will be $40 each plus shipping ($5.95 CA, $6.95 West of Rockies, $7.95 East of Rockies). Sold on a first-come, first-served basis.

Mahaloz!
Holden
