This is a mug modeled after a famous vintage tiki attributed to Mexican artist Deme Chavez (carved from South American hardwood in the 1950s) which stood proudly in the Hanalei Hotel garden atrium for decades but now has a new home at False Idol. Tiki Oasis used to take place at the Hanalei Hotel, so this mug is a nostalgic look back at an iconic figure from the event's past celebrating 25 years.
The tiki is also holding a commemorative metal coin reading "Est. 2001 Tiki Oasis 25 Years of Aloha!" and is standing on a raised round base encircled with scenes from the Town & Country grounds.
Commemorating the August 6th - August 10th, 2025 Tiki Oasis, held at the Town & Country Resort in San Diego, California.
Created by John Mulder of Eekum Bookum.
