Aloha all, went on eBay last night, looking to see if I could find this guy's fish hook necklaces cuz I have some Tiki money burning a hole in my pocket, and I saw one a few months ago that just blew me away. It was Koa and had a small handcarved Tiki bead. I decided on this one:

I am blown away by these, each one is completely unique, and the prices I think are fantastic. I have seen smaller, plainer mano makau of mammoth ivory on the Web that go for $200, this one was $70 made of Koa with mammoth ivory barb. This guy (Vince Cabanilla) is a real artist!

Anyone know Vince or own his work?

aloha,
em.
