Shag Tiki Lamp Mug
aka Shag Moai Lamp Mug in 3 collections
This is a stylized Moai head mug with round "button" decorations along the ears and base.

Years after the production of the lamps, Tiki Farm contracted with GoTiki to make a small run of the originally intended mugs from the existing mold. 10 mugs were produced in 2012 from a planned edition of 50. (The project eventually fell through; the remaining 40 mugs may be produced at a later date.) Glaze colors vary.
