SHRUNKEN HEAD Tiki Bowl~Hukilau 2017 Tiki Tony~Eekum Bookum~1/1 TIKI MUG Design

Description

SHRUNKEN HEAD Tiki Bowl ~ Hukilau 2017 ~Tiki Tony & Eekum Bookum ~ 1/1 Design of Tiki Mug
This tiki bowl is one of a kind. It was released at the Hukilau 2017 using the event tiki mug design as the three shrunken heads on the custom bowl. Tiki Tony designed the original mug and Eekum Bookum (John Mulder & team) sculpted and produced this 1/1 bowl (as well as the event mug). This bowl is believed to be the only one made. We had it on display in a glass case since bringing it home and never used it for drinking, although it does have nice prominent straw holes to be used. It is a solid brown and does not have the same glaze variations as used for the mugs.
This bowl is large and HEAVY. The heads are about the full size of the mugs. Measurements are approximately: 5" across the center bowl,
about 10" total inches across bottom from head (chin) to head (chin), 3.5" across base of  each head,
9" tall from base to tip of top knot.
The photos with this listing show the actual item.
Overall condition is LIKE NEW, with no flaws of any kind (no chips, cracks, etc.)—clean and bright. Any imperfections are from the original manufacture process. Please note there may be some photo/light glare or illuminated dust particles in the photos. I tried to take photos in both brighter and darker light so you could better see the details. Comes from a non-smoking home.
HOW WILL THIS ITEM BE SHIPPED?
This item will be wrapped in bubble wrap and shipped
safely
in a box INSIDE of another box (double boxed), adequately sized to protect the bowl during transit. Each head will be wrapped and each top knot fully covered, protected and supported. The shipping box will be filled to the maximum brim with packing peanuts to keep the box from crushing and to prevent any shifting during shipment.
Free trackable shipping and insurance to U.S. addresses--a -100 value (depending on zip code) because of the size and weight.
NOW AVAILABLE: INTERNATIONAL SHIPMENT
I am now using ebay's international global shipping program for some items. If your country qualifies for this program, I can easily ship to you by shipping the item first to a designated ebay shipping center here in the U.S. and they will take care of the final shipping to your country with the proper labels and forms. The cost to international buyers through this program involves two fees--US shipping to the ebay package center and then the applicable international shipping costs to the final destination--however, the level of service offered through this program is usually cheaper (even with both fees) than the same service directly through the US postal system--AND the shipment is fully trackable from the moment it leaves my house without any additional post office fees. I have been pleased with this service and have experienced good success with this program so far. I am happy this will easily allow me to work with more international buyers.  THANK YOU!
EXPERIENCED SELLER:
I have been selling on ebay since 1999 and have 100% positive feedback. As a longtime ebay buyer as well, I know what customers expect, particularly in regards to shipping. One must pack knowing the box will be abused by the carriers and plan accordingly by overpacking! I have not lost anything to breakage due to the extra time and steps I take in packaging the item.
IT'S IMPORTANT TO ME THAT MY BUYERS HAVE A POSITIVE EXPERIENCE!
FEEDBACK POLICY:
I post feedback when you pay and before I ship the item out. I do not request that buyers post feedback for me before I'll leave feedback for them. My policy is that when you pay, you have done your part and have earned your positive feedback--I do not wait to get your feedback before I'll leave feedback for you.
