This
dramatic accent piece stands 3 1/2 feet tall.
The Asian-influenced
design was influenced by the several stands of tall, graceful
bamboo
found all over
the Windward side of the Big Island of Hawaii, and also in the
artist's Hilo backyard.
The colors
were selected to portray the actual ambiance of living bamboo,
with a soft
amber background
to complete the warm, gracious glow of the piece.

Above
left is a close-up of the top of this piece. At the right is
a close-up of the
detail
work at the bottom, plus the base of Hawaiian Curly Koa.
The design
is duplicated on both sides, although the colors of the leaves
is unique to each panel.
The design
also flows around the sides back into the Koa case.
The lighting
is provided by two 14 watt fluorescent lamps.
These pieces are
individually hand made with extraordinary attention to detail.
Each is unique,
completely original and all patterns for each are destroyed when
the project is complete.
There are some similarities between some of the lamps, but there
are no two alike.
Each is signed by the artist and is accompanied by a signed Certificate
of Authenticity.
