Ed, I see what you mean about the racquets, however the pineapple was a request because Lanai ( lah nye) used to be known as the pineapple isle, because of the presence of Dole Pineapple, which eventually became Lanai company, which became Castle and Cook, which turned over management of the hotels to 4 seasons.

Chuck,

I wouldn't be able to quote you my price until I had the cost of your pet urn. Urns have a wide range of price. You can send me that cost via PM or e-mail, since we are still on a public forum.

My critque of the award would be to have the individual plates on the front of the award. The racquets could stay where they are and the pineapple(s) could be mounted to both sides of the award.


Upon reading your post a second time, I see what you mean. That would have been a better way to do it.

Chuck - you always have the option of filling the other 3 sides with plates - charge more - and have them average the cost over the number of years they would have to fill those plates! By filling the other sides with plates you then bring the focus back to the front.

I would like to know where you got that urn - It looks nice in the photos - a lot larger than most pet urns I have seen.

Chuck,

If you need the Tiki's let me know I have a family member who carves them in Hawaii.

They may not be exactly what is pictured but are very close.

Here is a link to look at his work.

Joe,
I'll need to go back in the archives and look. It has been close to a year since I ordered those samples.
The plates on the trophy are on two sides left and right.

I thought you had a very unique and original idea. " You have come a long way baby"

Chuck,

I only mentioned having the individual plates on the front of the award, in case it becomes one-of-many, in a display case.

In that event, viewing the side plates would become difficult.

Very unique concept...very well executed.

I like it a lot! :-)
