Only on TC-I am selling three authentic, old Paupua New Guinea carvings from my personal collection here to make room in my small living room for a four-footer I have just purchased!! These are the real deal. The two longer carvings are Spirit Hooks, which are used to hang their net bags, water gourds, etc. in their huts. The fiber and Cassawary-feather decorated one is Kamindibit Village, central Sepik River area. It is about 25-30 years old. It has a small 1 1/2 " repair area on one leg (a filled chip, very common on these pieces), hardly noticeable.. It is 36 x 9 inches. It is 120.00. The second, longer piece with the shell eyes is a Mindibit Village, also central Sepik River area and the neighboring village to Kamindibit ("Neighboring" in Paupua New Guinea means half-a-day by hike and canoe!!). It is also a Spirit Hook. 25-30 years old. 38 x 7 inches.As beautiful as the other; 125.00. *The third piece is a Mindibit carver's stool. These are traditional stools used by the tiki carvers and unique to every village. Appx. 20 years old. It is 14 x 8 inches. It is 60.00. I also have one cobalt blue glass float (new)left over from Hukilau last year. It is 32.00. Shipping on these pieces will be around 14-20.00 each, or cheaper grouped. Just PM me here, folks, and claim what you would like and I'll get you my Paypal adress and a total. Mahalo, and enjoy! The Cockeyed Mayor Of CarvaKaKai.
