Hawaiian Girls tooled copper art

Description
-
A group of two tooled and enameled copper art pieces in identical frames. Each depicts the face of a Hawaiian girl in profile, wearing or holding hibiscus flowers, with a green background. The pieces were created for the tourist trade. Labels on the back of each read: "A Wanda Irwin original. Genuine tooled copper. Made expressly for Jerry Cowden, Hawaii. Copyright 1948, Philip Irwin Co." Jerry Cowden was the owner of a gift and art supply store in Honolulu where these pieces were likely originally sold.
