My first Tiki I had to make myself because they really are rare here. 'Garage sales' & St Vincent de Paul outlets can sometimes show up an unwanted treasure, as can suburban markets. Our proximity to the South Pacific (it's on our doorstep) means that lots of homes across Sydney have artifacts people have brought back from Fiji,New Zealand,Cook Islands,Hawaii & PNG. Sometimes these items don't match the owners decor or modern tastes & they are then discarded for us to rediscover! Keep your eyes peeled & you'll be lucky - otherwise, sharpen your woodcarving tools! Cheers & good luck
