i just came from the house where this fantastic find is displayed the fountain is fantastic i didnt know they were so tall standing almost 7 feet definetly makes the room, i knew of a small place in deroche near chilliwack that had witco displayed, it a the time was opperating as a flea market there was a spanish them to it knight viking ship and also medallion that was on the back wall 8 ft round. these tiki pieces found are the first of this caliber ive seen on the open market in b.c i have seen alot of the spanish style witco pop up plus a witco dining room suite that surfaced through a friend that ran a trailer park 7 yrs ago very cool and archaic, i will contact him in manitoba a see if pics of the set can be emailed to me i personally just purchased a case or cabinet done in the same style cedar as witco, but its been turned into a reptile cage, and work will have to be done to restore it to something appealing to the eye, the set couldnt have been found by a more deserving collector it really know is the anchor to an even greater collection |
