Hi i am new to tiki sculpture world and found this piece at a thrift store. it has no markings and was wondering if it is a Witco Tiki? And what kind of value it is.
Its stands 29" tall and is 6" X 6"
thank you for any info

:lol:

also what is the best way to clean these pieces?

Witco yes. Tiki no.

Not all Witco is Tiki (this is not), just as not all Tiki is Witco. The best Witco is Tiki and midcentury modern-style. Then there is conquistador Witco, viking Witco, baroque Witco...this I would call medieval Witco, not very sought after....unless, for whatever reason, you are building a dungeon in your basement :)

But also, this is YOUR Witco, and if YOU like it, it is of value.

Thanks for info. I was thinking it was a chess piece. Its definitely mid-century as was the rest of the estate collection i recieved.
Anymore info would be greatly appreciated.

Are you looking to sell this piece?

Yea i thinks so. Probably put it on ebay.

Hopefully your questions have been answered. Good luck with your auction!

Moving this Non-Tiki Witco to Beyond Tiki.

Write on bradda Boris!

Correct me if I am wrong but Witco isnt tiki at all. Maybe tiki style but actually its American Kitsch.
