Metal Tiki Torches

Hi Everyone,

I'm new here and enjoying the site very much. The wealth of collective tiki knowledge is quite impressive and I'm blown away with what some people have done with their tiki decor.
Does anyone know of a source for the classic metal tiki torches of the fifties/sixties, or something remotely like these? My searches have proved futile.

thanks,

Fred

Are you sure you didn't try Google?

I did use google and did not come up with it in the first hundred listings or so. Thank you so much for pointing me to this. It's not the same cone shape, but will do nicely and is attractive in it's own right!

I saw some nice metal Tiki Torches at Costco, but they ain't cheap
I think they ran 50 clams each.

Hi Fred...welcome to TC. Check out Amazon, they always have some kind of Tiki torch.

Right now the first one on the page is a very nice metal design. I don't shop Big Lots but know that occasionally they carry torches. Best of luck shopping.

Doing a Google image search for "metal tiki torch" turns up a lot of photos. Of course most are not what you are looking for but searching for stuff via images sometimes lets you cover a lot of ground more quickly. :)

The Island kings are nice, you get a real big flame from them, very impressive.

Should also check ebay as an alternate choice..good luck!

Thanks, everyone. Yes, my google search did turn up a lot of metal torches, but none with that classic mid-century design I was looking for. I'll keep watching ebay to see if any come up.
