Mug made by Munktiki for The Alibi in Portland, Oregon. Originally launched in 2016. I worked with Munktiki to make this mug happen and am so happy with how it turned out. Originally sold as a set of four (one of each color) for $100, or $30 each.

This is a mug shaped like a Tiki head with half circle eyes, an angular nose, and broad lips. Back features some palm fronds and the words: "The Alibi est. 1947" This mug was made by Munktiki Imports for The Alibi, a Portland tavern, with a long history, that turned Polynesian in 1947. These mugs were sold in 4 glaze color combinations in a wipe-away effect leaving the raised surface a beige ("Antique Lace") and the recessed areas either "Sunset Red", "Lime Green", "Denim Blue", or "Burnt Umber Brown" and later "Green".
