This limited edition of 500 mugs was created by Kevin Kidney and Jody Daily for the 45th Anniversary of the Enchanted Tiki Room. The mug was supposed to make its debut five years earlier for the 40th anniversary, but there was a mishap at the factory. It is modeled after an original design by imagineer Rolly Crump. Advertisements show it being used as a fruit bowl also, but it is indeed intended for drinks. It is shaped like a goblet with a seated tiki figure holding up the bowl-shaped portion. Brown glaze. Made in China. Tags attached around stem with twine.

This brown bowl was designed by Kevin Kidney and Jody Daily for the 45th Anniversary of the Enchanted Tiki at Disneyland. The tiki is based on Rongo who resides in the garden area of the Enchanted Tiki Room and was originally designed by Rolly Crump. Rongo is sitting on a small base with a leaf covered bowl perched atop his head. The bowl has two small tikis on the sides of the rim.
