Okito-Nielsen
Gobi Bowl

Effect:
This was the effect with which Okito opened his show for many,
many years. The magician fills an empty bowl with confetti.
The bowl is covered with a foulard, the performer walks towards
the audience, and waves his hand on top of the bowl. The foulard
is removed to reveal a transformation: The bowl is now filled
with water, which is emptied in a container.
Okito
made the Gobi Bowl at the turn of the 20th century (around
1904), he later made these for Joe Berg in Chicago during
the 1940's. We are now making this effect in the Okito tradition
in the same decorative style and manner. This piece is made
with the highest craftsmanship. The box is lacquered and decorated
with Oriental-style decals. The copper bowls are spun, polished
and clear-coated. A beautiful 100% silk with a dragon design
is also included. The box measures 9.5" square, and the
bowl measures 8.75" in diameter.
This
is a very limited edition, a true collector's item!

Mandarin Center Table
These
are finally ready for shipping!
The
original Okito Mandarin Center Tables were made in the 1950's
when Okito worked in association with Don Redmon. We believe
only four were made of these. Continuing the Okito tradition,
we are making a very limited number of Mandarin Center Tables
- only a dozen.
This
is a very close reproduction of the one Okito made. It has
a lacquered finish with the same images Okito used for his
decal work plus addtional decals added to enhance it. This
table is perfect to display and perform magic. It has an interior
shelf and a servante behind it. The table packs flat, and
all the parts interlock when assembled.
Dimensions:
32.5" x 24" W x 13" D
Price:
$2250 plus $40 shipping/handling/full insurance
Please
remember: Norm has only made TWELVE of these tables.
(Note:
The Gobi Bowl atop the table is sold separately)
