Well, I am lucky to have a "tiki buddy" nearby too...Tama and I don't hang out as much as we used to because of our family commitments, but when we do we have plenty to talk about, although he probably sees most of my stuff at the same time as you guys... Here's #25 all finished....just "Tangaroa" will do for this one :) Black basalt collected from the lagoon in Rarotonga, in the harbour where the fleet of 7 voayaging canoes set sail for Aotearoa about 700(?) years ago..... Side B finally done: Both sides, strung up and ready to go: Nowhere on the carving for the maker's marks, so the toggle had to do:
