well..here he is!!!

THE PICS:

Here he is with the original resin statue that was released so you can get an idea of scale.

THE INFO:

These Elviki are going to be produced in a very limited quantity to celebrate DSK Designs 10 year anniversary of producing Elviki for artist Cindy crowell. These Elviki are 24" tall from the base to the tip of his hair curl. They are individually carved by hand and then finished and handpainted by me here in the studio. I wanted to leave as much natural wood grain exposed so I only painted the hair and the base in black. A clear coat is also applied to help protect it and seal it. These are for indoor display only, however, if you choose to put yours outside i would reccommend you coat it with something to prptect it from the elements.

THE PRICE:

Elviki is $175.00 and this price includes shipping anywhere in the U.S. -except-

Hawaii, alaska and internationally orders please contact me with your shipping info so i can get you a shipping estimate.

and finally,...

THE RUB:

IMPORTANT- PLEASE READ!!!!

Because these elviki are made as they are ordered and individually carved by hand there may be slight variations from one elviki to the next. I will strive to make sure that they all are looking as close to the original carving and the pics above as possible.

Also, because these are made overseas and the rain season is approaching, your elvikis may take as long as a couple months to be completely dry before i recieve them and finish them before shipping them off to you. If they are not dry enough, they will crack and split and we don't want that.....

so basically i am looking for a show of hands on who would be interested in one of these.

I am only accepting paypal as payment for these and the reason being is that it leaves a paper trail in the form of a receipt for both of us so i can keep track of who bought one while i am waiting for them to come in. If you want to reserve one i suggest you pay for one now and when they are ready in a couple months, those who have submitted payment first will be the first to recieve theirs when they are finished. If you would rather wait to pay, that's fine too but it may take a little longer till you recieve yours since i need to fill all the paid orders first and i am only having a a scant few extra made that aren't paid for when i place the first orders. A paypal payment guarantees you an elviki.

If you would like to save on shipping, i will post if i am going to be at an upcoming event, tiki or otherwise and would be happy to deliver it in person.....also, if you order one and are going to be in chicago, i can meet you somewhere and again, deliver your elviki to you. Just P.M. Me when you will be in town.

my paypal is my email address...

any questions, p.m. me.
