in 0 collections
From Avua Cachaca:
"We are excited to release Avuá Cachaça's Volcán mugs, designed by the masterful Maï Baï of Paris and designer for Dirty Dick. This piece was inspired by the architecture of Oscar Niemeyer such as the Volcán cultural space in Le Havre, France.
Bai mashed up this mid-century style with the classic tiki mug Moai, alluding to to the proud native warriors of Brazil - the Tupi. As Oswald de Andrade wrote in a seminal article on Brazilian art: Tupi or not Tupi, that is the question, an inspiration to bossa nova, Niemeyer and artists ranging from Caetano Veloso to Stan Getz to Os Mutantes.
We have partnered with Tiki Cocktail Box to get this out there - get them while you can!"
