Very rare artist signed Ray Murray Hana Isle Made in Hawaii Monstera Leaf from the rain Forest ashtray. Aloha Hawaii is cleverly worked into the rim of the leaf. This piece screams Mid Century Tiki Hawaii!! This was an estate sale time capsule find many years back, purchased by the couple on their honeymoon in Hawaii in the 1960”s. Put away in a box wrapped in newspaper and hadn’t seen light since I discovered it nearly 60 years later. I’m switching my collection from Mid-Century to Art Decp style , only reason we’re parting ways. It’s looking for a new home!!
Measures 8 3/8” inch length and 5 1/2” widest point.
Absolute mint collector quality condition , the craftsmanship and detail are incredible. Signed by artist Ray Murray RM himself. These Hana Isle pieces are extremely rare and highly collectible! If your into Mid-Century , especially Tiki Hawaii this could be a crown jewel in your collection. The coloring is so natural and incredible.
I’m not going to lie, writing this ad has really put me in the mood for a Blue Hawaiian cocktail!!
