Vintage Rapa Nui Moai
Ready for
Shipment
This solid hardwood vintage Moai kavakava / Rapa Nui was
hand sculpted in the early first quarter of the 1960s.
For most, the mention of Easter Island, or Rapa Nui,
the small, isolated island more than 2,000 miles off the coast of South
America, conjures images of giant statues known as moai.
Measurements are
approximately 10 inches in height, 2 inches wide, and 3 inches deep.
Additional note: Wood to carve this
collector’s item by the Islanders was not available. The island was mostly
cleared of all timber. The hardwood to hand-sculpt this figure was provided by
my friend on a special assignment on the island in early 1960. Payment for the
carved figure was bartered with candy and soft drinks. Very few were carved in
1960. With that being stated, this is a collector’s item!!
Thanks
for viewing and consideration of the purchase of the collector special wood
carving!
