Well, it's certainly "tiki" to me, be it mass produced from Bali or wherever. (As if tiki mugs weren't massed produced in the 1950s & 60s?).
They sell them all over the place here in Waikiki. I actually think they're kind of cool..except for the ones riding motorcycles or screwing each other. I actually almost bought a CD rack one..I thought that was pretty cool.
I don't own any of these types yet, but I suppose I should pick one up before the carvers in Bali, Philippines, etc., etc. turn to a new style. I am seeing fewer of this style lately.
Hey, I mean, if it makes you happy to believe it was carved by a long lost tribe of islanders exiled from Krakatoa, all the happier. I mean, what's Christmas without Santa Claus.
