Amazing large size Witco wall hanging entitled “Tahitian Lovers”. Pictured on page 188 of book “Tiki Modern” by Sven A. When I first saw this piece I assumed that the fabric was a later addition since it is in such good condition and such a wild print. BUT, no, this is the original fabric. This wall hanging is in excellent condition, with no major issues. There are a few nicks and slivers to frame (largest one is pictured it is on the top left corner) as to be expected with age, but no chunks or breaks out of wooden sculptures. The woman has a vertical fissure in the wood of her skirt and the man has a smaller one too, but that is not uncommon in Witco pieces as the wood dries out. Neither detracts in the least. A few light scuffs to bottom border wood. Fabric has no holes, no stains and best of all, no evil odors. A few stains to backing. It really shows well! 60″ tall x 30″ wide x 2 deep. Two metal hooks on back for hanging. Marked on back is W-26 and “Capricorn”. Perfect addition to a Witco collection, your mid century decor, a Tiki bar, or man cave. This will be professionally packed. The item “RARE Vintage WITCO Tahitian Lovers Wall hanging TIKI Modern Sculpture 5 Ft” is in sale since Sunday, August 19, 2018.
