THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH HAVING A FEW OF THESE EXOTIC WALL HANGERS AROUND FOR DECOR IF THE PRICE IS RIGHT. SOME OF THE OLD TIKI BARS WERE DECORATED WITH THIS SORT OF ITEM BACK IN THE DAYS OF MY YOUTH AND THERE WERE NO COOLER PLACES TO HANG OUT.

SO I HAVE SOME OF THIS SORT OF THING AND A TIKI COLLECTION .
IF IT WAS CARVED IN THE MARQUESAS OR TAHITI IT DOES QUALIFY AS MODERN ETHNOGRAPHIC ART.
DECORATING OUR WALLS DOES HAVE A VERY LONG AND HONORABLE HISTORY FROM CAVE PAINTINGS, DRAWINGS ON HIDES TO MORE MODERN PAINTINGS AND TAPESTRY'S.
