Description
**First Time At Auction**
North America, Hawaiian Islands, ca. late 20th century CE, signed by artist C. Souza (probably Charles Souza). A large and lustrous wooden jar with an accompanying lid, hand-carved from milo wood, with a graceful form and elegant presentation. The vessel portion has a flat base, rolling walls, slightly-indented shoulders, a deep tondo, and a thin rim. The lid, which fits snugly around the rim, has a rounded top and a short lip. Waves of natural wood grain flow across the toffee and espresso-hued jar, and a meticulous polish brings forth its high sheen. A stunning example! Size: 5.8" W x 5.7" H (14.7 cm x 14.5 cm); 6.75" H (17.1 cm) with accompanying lid.
Provenance: private Newport Beach, California, USA collection
All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
