LARGE KAVA BOWLS NO. 1, 2
and 3 ON SALE
Bowl No. 1 - This Graceful
18" Wide Handcarved Bent-Leg Kava Bowl was handcarved from one piece
of dense hardwood (IFILELE tree wood) so is heavy. Large pieces of this Ifilele
wood are becoming increasingly hard to get as the trees are very slow growing.
This tanoa has very detailed designs carved around complete sides and the
top rim. The Bent-Legs are a more difficult design to handcarve. It has the
traditional, natural luster patina and was polished with a pig's tooth to
show its lovely wood grain on the inside of the bowl. It measures 18"
wide and 7" high.
Price: Was $300.00 - Sale Price with 20% off is $240.00 (plus shipping)
