Cosmic Skull Mug - Lunar White Edition - by Munktiki Imports - for Kindred & Mothership
in 4 collections
This is a pocked and weathered white skull with cosmic nebulae and starry galaxies peeking through the eye sockets, mouth cavity, and through a break in the back cranium. These celestial vistas look kinda psychedelic like they were designed by American comic book artist Jack Kirby back in his heyday.
Kindred is a metal-themed bar in San Diego, California with a vegan menu. Though not a tiki-themed establishment necessarily, they have a long-running tiki night (Permanent Vacation) and, they serve several tiki cocktails and have produced several mugs in the past.
From the Kindred website:
"Two behemoth celestial forces collide into one illustrious drinking tankard! We present the KINDRED x MOTHERSHIP collaboration Cosmic Skull Mug! A multi-universe mug alliance a year in the works, KINDRED and MOTHERSHIP have commemorated the finale of Permanent Vacation and the upcoming launch of MOTHERSHIP with a two-vessel series, designed with the help of Thor, manufactured by Munktiki, and limited to just 400 mugs in each color variant. The first color variant, Lunar White, is available right here. A second color variant, yet to be disclosed, will be available at MOTHERSHIP during its opening. For those who experience imbibing as an explorational act of duty, this flagon is a triumph of cosmological proportion."

Kokeshi Doll Mug for Fuji-En
in 0 collections
This mug is shaped like a traditional Kokeshi doll.
Marked for the Fuji-En in Denver. Located at 930 Lincoln Street, Denver, CO, the Fuji-En was perhaps the best remembered Japanese restaurant in the Denver area between 1946 and the 1980's. It was located outside the city's traditionally Japanese enclave between Lawrence and Larimer Streets. The Fuji-En was a miniature, idealized version of Japan. Established in 1959, it was Denver's only Japanese restaurant for most Denverites. A miniature wooden bridge led diners to the main dining room or to one of the "Zashiki Tea Rooms". A visit to The Fuji-En was as far East as Denver got during the 1960's and 1970's.

This mug depicts the rising hand of The Creature emerging from a sea bed with small shells and starfish. The hand is holding a more traditional tiki mug. This is the third and final edition of the Thirsty Creature in "Lagoon Is Lava" (orange and red).
The first edition was in a "Ghastly Green Grotto Glaze" and although the plan was to do a second edition in a "Black & Blue Lagoon" glaze (intense blue and purple), since that glaze was no longer commercially available, the finished 2nd edition is more of a "Freaky Fishscale" (purple & light cyan blue).
Like the first and second editions, this was a limited release of 200, each was hand numbered and signed by Pete Klockau.
