It's a freestanding wood sculpture consisting of five tikis that look alike, except they stack, and each one diminishes in size--largest one on the bottom (about 18" tall) to the top one (about 5" tall). All together, it's pretty impressive in size--perhaps almost 5 feet tall. Each tiki (except for the top one) has a metal rod sticking out of its head that inserts into a hole in the bottom of the next one, which keeps the whole stack stabalized. It's carved from a dense, light-colored wood that has been rather sloppily stained dark. Lots of drips and spatters. I'm sure it's "vintage". The tag says it's "40's" era and the seller is asking $295 Just wondering if anyone has seen one of these before. I searched here in the archives for awhile now, and on Google, and haven't had any luck. Thanks.
