Chub, those Tahitian Lanai hut posts are more authentic, standard Tahitian/Marquesan style posts that became quite common in early 60s American Tiki temples as Oceanic Arts adopted them. The left one with Elithe Aguiar is more stylized in the direction of Polynesian pop - taking the Tahitian post concept as a starting point, but executing it in a more whimsical manner.
