CVN visits artifact collection in Hawaii

Carpinterian Amanda McIntyre posed with what she called her favorite newspaper, CVN, in the central court of the Shangri La estate built by Doris Duke in Oahu, Hawaii.

The estate is filled with art, sculptures and artifacts from several different countries, collected by Duke and her husband during their year-long honeymoon around the world. The collection also includes whole wall and floor tiles, separated from their foundation.

“Not a piece of this vast collection would be possible to recreate today, as each country’s patrimony would prevent the export of the items,” McIntyre told CVN. “It has lasted much longer than the marriage.”
