Devil's Reef Tiki Mug
aka. Maltese Tiki Mug - Brown
I guess by now we all know this mug's grizzly secret... but I see no-one has been brave enough to post the story on here. I cannot reveal from what tortured soul I acquired this trinket, nor the bizarre circumstances by which it passed into my possession... I will say no more - lest I bring the fabled curse down upon me ;-)

Devil's Reef Tiki Mug - Brown - by Bristow Potteries Limited - Malta
aka Maltese Tiki Mug - Brown in 3 collections
A Maori influenced tiki head mug. Some speculation on Tiki Central that the design was Cthulhu Mythos inspired and obtained from The Devil's Reef Tiki Bar located in Innsmouth, MA (said to have been destroyed during the US government raid of 1928).
This version is glazed in brown, but there are other color-ways also.
