Eekum Bookum designed and produced this mug depicting Salma Hayek as Santánico Pandemonium from the Dusk till Dawn movie (released in 1996), for the Calaveras Cantina in Boca Raton, Florida.
Santánico Pandemonium, formerly known as Esmeralda, was a character who first appeared in the first film of the film series. She was the Vampire Queen of the Titty Twister Bar.
This tall mug is a faithful reproduction of the character wearing a bikini and doing her snake dance scene while flames lick up from below.
This mug is used to serve the "Salma's Snake Dance" cocktail: with Desnuda Organic Tequila, Illegal Joven Mezcal, Fresh Lime Juice, Chinola Passionfruit, Honey & Vanilla.

Unauthorized Drei Moai Scorpion Bowl - Brown
aka Unauthorized Three Moai Scorpion Bowl - Brown, Tiki Bowl of Waikiki in 0 collections
A bowl supported by three frowning moai.
The original version was sculpted by Squid and manufactured by Tiki Farm but this is an unauthorized version with distorted details that was sold on e-Bay, Amazon, Winish, Ali Express, and through several wholesale bar supply stores online.
This unauthorized version was mass produced in either all green or all brown, whereas the Tiki Farm versions were all two-tone (even the artist proofs) to highlight the "lava" rim and interiors.
It reads "Tiki Bowl of Waikiki Designed by Tiki Bar 2006" but that designer is hard to track down and the year this was actually issued was likely several years later than this.

Kapu Puffer Tarot Series 2 Mug - by Munktiki - for McMenamins
in 1 collection
From McMenamin's:
"At once you are welcomed and forbidden, as the pufferfish is cute but deadly with its ballooning spikes. Swim carefully – or better yet, stay ashore drinking tropical cocktails from this mug inspired by the Kapu Hut at North Bank Pub. McMenamins Tarot series has an arcana of its own. Each mug draws inspiration from the art at individual McMenamins island-inspired bars. Just like tarot cards, the mugs have different meanings when upright or inverted. Our Tarot Series mugs are made by Munktiki. They’re thrown by hand on a potter’s wheel, then the design is carved, from which a mold is made. After firing they’re hand-painted and hand-stamped. Slight imperfections are the nature of handmade.
Maximum ounces this tiki mug can hold is 12oz. Series 2 is inspired by art and objects from The Old Hangout at Elks Temple. Limited edition, 1000 total quantity produced."
