They are not Hula bookends. They are Maori. See the necklace she's wearing?

It's Pania of the reef.

I was going to say, but you beat me to it.

A month ago I found this small Pania figure at a rummage sale. She's about 6" tall.

Yes, her face is ghastly - "Pania of the Undead".

This larger figure I bought a decade ago is a more successful likeness.

Some recent tiki finds mostly from Waikiki (of all places) and one from Kapolei also on O'ahu. They are to keep the taller Lono, in the background, company. Also just found a set of 4 (still in the sealed wrap) tiki place mats from an antique shop in Atlanta.

New stuff

Pair of made in Hawaii clubs

Polyart hul girl

Mister Tiki pineapple mug.

Buzzy Out!

Wow so much cool stuff. It is rare in our area to find anything. Yesterday at a thrift store I spotted a blue bank. Dan added it to his bank collection from the same maker. Now he wonders if there is a fourth one out there. We do have a salt and pepper by this company. Nothing on the bottoms we are guessing maker by design. Does anyone have information on these?

Scored a couple of volcano bowls with removable inserts!

Very nice Cavemoai. Congrats

Thanks Nui, I found the inserts first and went looking for the bowls they went in. They were right behind be!

That’s amazing! My brother lives in Reno and finds some pretty cool stuff for me and my udder bruddah TikiVato. Not all Trader Dicks stuff either.
Cheers

Nui, Killer! He actually came into the antique mall where we have a space and gave my wife his card. I'm not trying to blow up the spot, but Reno is incredible for tiki finds. I've been collecting for about 12 years, and since we moved here in Feb, I've been finding crazy stuff I never thought I'd even get to see in person (the Los Angeles Islander Vicious Virgin Bowl comes to mind), let alone find in the wild.

Score...

New stuff:

Trader sam's bowl 2nd edition

HIP ashtray I didn't have yet

Tahitian Motor Lodge, Santa Barbara postcard

Matchbooks

Reference

Hula Lei perfume holder

Fez

Buzzy Out!
 

Got an early Christmas present:

menu and napkins from TV in SF - 1951

After looking for over ten years, I finally found a tiki mug at one of our local thrift stores. Yes, that's just how scarce tiki can be here in the Ozarks.

My find? A set of four Paul Mitchell peanut tikis...sure, nothing super rare but I'm just happy to finally find something in the way of mugs. At $2 each, I'm not complaining. :)

I also found this tall bamboo candle holder, which will look great with one of those flickering led candles.

And last but not least, the smallest framed crochet image of a parrot in a ridiculously oversized frame (relatively speaking). Hahaha

Christmas Palm and tiki from estate...

Xmas gifts from Mrs. Waikiki Tiki!

Tiki Mug from the Volcano House in Kona.

1940's-50's 2-inch Bakelite Tahitian shirt buttons. She found them in a vintage shop in Waimea!

Wow phillip Roberts! That mug and those buttons are awesome
I found this Hawaiian souvenir at a local thrift. About 18” tall

Found among my Christmas presents.

My brother TikiVato visited the JungleBird a couple of months ago. I’m glad that he plans ahead and snagged this mug for his favorite brother.

My wife gave me this. Each figure inside the globe is different The lights atop the Globe look like tiny flames when you throw the switch. Battery operated from Tommy Bahama . This will stay on display all year long.

My wife also gave me these dessert plates from Tommy Bahama

2017 Christmas present: Don the Beachcomber’s drink menu from the mid-1940s

Nothing vintage for Christmas or my birthday... On the contrary, my birthday presents contributed to The Problem... I got all four of the GeekiTiki mugs I wanted, which is a feat for the area I live in...

Found an autographed album today

:)

Forgot to post this . A gift from my Tikiphile son.

My wife got me this Muntiki mug for Christmas:

This came out of a Myrtle Beach estate sale....Its over 6 foot tall with a crazy amount of detail... I would love to research it, but have no idea where to begin. Any thoughts on how to find information... or on the style, country, artist, wood ..... anything?????
