The listing, Vintage 70's Coco Joe's of Hawaii Hapa Wood Monstera Leaf Dish Excellent Serving Tray has ended.
This is a vintage Coco Joe's dish, made in the 1970's.
It is in the shape of a Monstera Leaf, and is carved from Hapa Wood.
The original label is still attached on the bottom. It is in excellent condition. I can find no flaws.
The dish has 3 sections. The label suggests using it for Pupus (hors d'oeurves), candy, nuts, or other treats. You could also use it for rings, keys, or loose change. It measures 8" from leaf to leaf. "ALOHA HAWAII" is carved on the side of each leaf.
This is a sturdy, dense piece..it weighs about 1 1/2 lbs.
Here's a little secret..."Hapa-wood...a partial wood product combining the beauty of natural wood with the long lasting qualities of modern technology..."
"Hapawood looks like, feels like, and approximates the weight of various Hawaiian woods."
Hapa wood is actually plastic.
