Tiki Farm Kon-Tiki Mug In Wipe Beige For Club Tiki
aka Tiki Farm Kon-Tiki Mug Reproduction For Club Tiki in 1 collection
The design of this mug is borrowed from Thor Heyerdahl's Kon Tiki boat, which used the design of a South American sun god, Kon Tiki. Forehead has three sunray-like dashes, lips are two horizontal lines. This version is a reproduction manufactured by Tiki Farm and the heat decal on back was meant to kickstart a monthly membership to exclusive club membership promotional mugs and other collectibles from Tiki Farm. However, 2017 turned into such a busy year with regular business contracts that Holden was forced to shelve the entire club idea. These mugs had already been made, however, so he sold them at the La Luz de Jesus Tiki Art Show and mug signing in October that was hosted by Otto and Sven.
