Unauthorized Modern Primitive Tall Tiki Mug Orange Eyes - by Tiki Soul
aka. Unauthorized Hula's Modern Tall Tiki Mug
This is a knock-off of the Modern Primitive mug for Hulas Modern Tiki Bar by Tiki Farm. It does not appear to cast from the original mould or mug, but rather duplicated by hand, as the wood grain lines on the front do not correspond with the original version. The bottom says TIKI SOUL. Would not have purchased if I knew it was a replica.

Unauthorized Modern Primitive Tall Tiki Mug Orange Eyes - by Tiki Soul
aka Unauthorized Hula's Modern Tall Tiki Mug in 2 collections
This light brown wood grain tall mug was originally designed by Phillipe Tilikete for Tiki Farm. The mug has a tiki face with orange protruding eyes, a long and narrow nose and an open, circle mouth exposing its teeth. This version is an unauthorized copy, marked "Tiki Soul" on bottom. The brown facial features are more matte than the original which is glossy and dimensions are slightly different with different wood grain. Other unauthorized mugs marked "Tiki Soul" were first spotted in Australian stores, before being snapped up by other wholesalers, and they were originally manufactured in Hong Kong, China.
