So I wanted to add this light to this page.
It was first seen here on the thread below about a house that is for sale but I had seen one of these at the Kahiki sale but unfortunately my friend Brad bought it and it is surly dead.

So here it is and they have two of them.
They are made of rattan and WOOD ribbons.
Those points are the fine thin wood ribbon that has been woven and twisted to loop up to that point and then turn back into the light and continue around the light.
This light is a bit bigger than a basket ball, like one and a half times bigger and would weight about 1 or 2 pounds.

Think of the ribbon you use to wrap a Christmas package and that is what this wood ribbon is like.

Don’t know how one would make this light they are so cool.
All I can say is they are a one off style all their own.

Very fragile and there can’t be many left.

Thank you Sweet Daddy Tiki.
