(1950s) This famous four sided-two faced "Janus" pole (as described by Sven Kirsten) was initially a George Nakashima design for Steve Crane's "THE LUAU" in Beverly Hills, California. This pole is actually salvaged from that location. It was also used in the Marriott KONA KAI flagship location in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It was carved by Cass Carving, Los Angeles. 39.75"x5.5". VG+ with typical wear.
