050 The Four Planets

$300.00

050 The Four Planets: This grouping of 4 cannonball gourds represent the four world zones of 1) Afro-Eurasia: Africa and the Eurasian landmass, including offshore islands like Britain and Japan; 2) The Americas: North, Central, and South America, plus offshore islands like the Caribbean Islands; 3) Australasia: Australia and the island of Papua New Guinea, plus neighboring islands in the Pacific Ocean; and 4) The Pacific: Island societies such as New Zealand, Micronesia, Melanesia, Hawaii. Despite being so distant from one another, there are greater commonalities than we fully recognize. Could those commonalities help bring a struggling world back together? This cabal makes a stunning centerpiece for a table or entryway. Dimensions (each): 5” x 5” weighing 4 oz. each / this grouping is 13 x 26 x 17 but can be manipulated because the gourds are nestled in a casual arrangement with dried areca palm boats.
