Gift from the manager on my visit to the Kon Tiki in August 2012.

Custom 1/1 with added purple butterfly at my request.

Distinguishing Characteristics

This paddle licker is more yellow, than green.

I asked Scott to make a version of this mug with the tiki upside-down on the pineapple so that the pineapple could be displayed the 'right way' up when sitting on the shelf, and this is the result. My idea also was to be able to drink out of both sides of it and it wasn't until later that both of us realized how hard it was going to be to glaze as there was no way to be able to sit it on a kiln shelf without the mug sticking to it. He ended up being able to fire it on stilts laying on its side, which worked perfectly, however the glaze used on the tiki ran which caused the large 'drip' on the back. The only way to fix that would be to try and grind it off but as it is on the back and can't be seen i'm just going to leave it the way it is.

After seeing a pineapple bowl by Beachbumz the idea came to me to turn it into a chalice/goblet using the Tiki's as the stem and the pineapple as the cup. I messaged Scott with my idea and he surprised me when we met in Waikiki whilst i was on holiday by presenting it to me for my birthday present. Mahalos Scott, you did a great job on it.
