Just so ya knows, we still have a few 'Ona Tiki lamps.

Gas is now low enough now you can start burning that electricity for your home bar parties.....

Yes Indeedy these are legendary often imitated OnaTik Originals.

If you ask any honest Southern California Poly-pop lamp maker they will likely tell you that Ona is Al'ii, and possibly the only reason they now have the knowledge to make lamps at all. While his field of peers has grown in the past several years, few succeed in duplicating Ona's signature simplicity of design.

Far from the hanging electric birthday cakes of his recent imitators Ona's work remains elegant, tasteful and sophisticated.

Ready to hang and plug-in, the smaller colored tapa barrels sell for only $150.00 each, which Augie says is a steal!

In addition to these are a pair of large lamps with some interesting Tiki History. A stunning 'Conga' shaped beauty over 3' long glows warmly wrapped in woven jute with a Samoan tapa print bottom. This lamp along with a vivid tapa 'Drum', pictured above once hung both above the main performance hall at Oasis6 and above the bar in the South Pacific Room at San Diego's Bali Hai. Own either of these handmade giants for only $299.

OnaTiki Barware including pints and Mai Tai glasses as well as tee's for the whole family all bare Doug Hornes distinctive artwork designed exclusively for San Diego's most coveted home bar!!!
