This is my interpretation of one of the famous giant headed statues on Easter Island, or Rapa Nui. It was made for a local tiki event (Festiki), but it would be great decor for any tiki bar, back yard tiki oasis, near the swimming pool, or in the garden.

This one of kind, large, weather resistant statue stands 5'5" tall and is around 26" wide. It is carved out of industrial polystyrene foam with a heavy coating of a special concrete mixture which makes it very strong, yet light enough to be moved. It is approximately 150 lbs. It is reinforced in certain damage prone areas with an aluminum mesh embedded in the concrete.

Since this item is very large and heavy, either local pickup or freight shipping will be required. I have transported it easily in the back of my Ford Windstar with the seats folded down, so it should fit into other minivans or pickup trucks as well.

Please contact me if you have any questions.

Me with the moai at a luau (before final coating):

I am asking $800. or best offer.

If you are interested in purchasing this piece, please make me an offer and I'll consider it. I'd really like to sell this before the end of the month.

Thanks!
