Sold. Thank you!!

These painted resin tiles were made as a matching set with some subtle changes made to each and addition of cowry shells, making them further unique. The design of the cult hook is based on a Papua New Guinea Sepik female ancestral cult hook carving. Then I blended in Sepik style arches for the surrounding. The color scheme is based on Sepik earth mineral paint colors. The paint on these is matte on the front.
These were cast with a resin that bubbles up due to humidity which left a great lava texture on back. The high points of the “lava” were then glossed.
The bottoms are stamped with Ocea Otica, 2019, and labeled 1/1 and 1/2.
This set is unique; I will not be making more that have the lava back.
Tiles measure approx 7 1/2 inches tall x 4 1/2 inches wide.
These intended to be roped together like the Chinese jade tiles, but can be hung or presented in many fashions in your homebar or bar.
Comes with some natural hemp rope to get you started (which can be aged down however you prefer to do at home). A portion of the sale of these will be donated to a PNG charity.
As a side note, my phone is an older model and I have tremors in my hands so apologies for shakey photos-these are more to see in person
Have questions about these; please feel free to shoot me a message
