Hey! it worked my first photo download to TC.

Man I love these huge photos!

So this guy I sold to Tiki underground for just really cheap but it is in that sale. I knew it was cheap when I sold it but knowing it would go to a tiki bar is why I sold low. But man I'm going to cry when I see what the one in the sale goes for. This one came from OA as well back in the 60s. But then I get treated like a king when I go to his bar now, Ha! Nope. No good deed.

This is on the OA site as. Not the same one but a dead ringer for the one I sold from Kahiki.

I swear this one is lined with a Big Bear shopping bag, original lining. IMG_0029

See how this light has the loops like this light in the auction. Same maker I would say.

377 SMALL OA "BASKET LAMP" IMG_0448 This is a rehab I did of an old Kahiki light for Tropical Bistro in Columbus and they sold it to some Cop they said, were supposed to offer it to me if they sold it was what I asked them to do. I would come in and they would hand me a light and I thought they were giving it to me but then they would say no I want you to fix it for me.

Hey copper if you ever want to sell this light I will buy it.

See again with the loops. This is not so hard to put in the rattan if you have fresh rattan to work with we mostly don't get fresh rattan here in the states. kahiki stuff 012

This one is cool but I'm not sure as how to take the lopsidedness out of it. But see how it is woven man that was not done here. IMG_3308
