<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 2253746, member: 2844&quot;]I just read that the 10,000 or so Trobriand Islanders have been selling their heirlooms to pay for simple commodities. They can&#039;t earn money in your imaginary factories, because there are none in the Trobriand Islands, obviously.</p><p>Now you insult them by burning their heritage, in spite of the fact that someone has already offered to pay for shipping.</p><p>If you don&#039;t appreciate it, you could have sold it and donated the money to a Trobriand Island education fund or something. But destruction it has to be.</p><p><br /></p><p>Why did you ask about the stool if you didn&#039;t want to listen to those who know?</p><p>Komo, 2many, and I are known to have knowledge of ethnic art, and we say this is a good piece. But you&#039;d rather believe some unproven story that this stool could have been made in &#039;the islands or the orient somewhere&#039;. Is it because you had already made up your mind to burn another people&#039;s cultural legacy?</p><p>I wonder what someone who has no respect for culture and genuine items is even doing here.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
