No matter what "sizeable" adjective you choose, this fantastic piece of 1960s Witco wall art will fit the description. The piece is 63 1/2" wide (ahem, that's over 5 feet), and 33" tall (nearly 3 feet). Now, that's a lot of art!
Witco (short for the Western International Trading Company) imported a variety of decorative objects from the South Pacific before hitting on the popular carved art and furniture for which they are famous. The production plant for the art work was in Mt. Vernon, Washington, and the company used primarily red cedar (which was stained a dark walnut) for their wood-based creations.
The piece is in excellent original condition. The orange canvas-like background still possesses vibrant color and is free from stains. The frame has a few small bumps and bruises from normal wear.
If your inner-Tiki is calling you, you've found the piece de resistance. It comes ready to hang and enjoy!
SOLD. Thanks, Sam @ Columbus, Ohio!
