Papua Pingo - Medallion Series - Tiki Mug by Ken Ruzic
Regular price $40.00
Introducing “Papua Pingo”, designed by Ken Ruzic.
How many of you remember the relatively rare, with some approaching-vintage Tiki Farm mugs that were relatively simple in shape and adorned with great “medallion-style” (that’s our working name for them) bas relief Tikis or other Tiki-relevant embellishments?. There’s our Solomon’s Island Tiki mug, our Tonga Room Signature Tiki mug, our U’I Lani by Mookie Sato and more. I would estimate about a dozen or so in total if we dug in deep into our history.
I absolutely dig those mugs!
Here is our Tiki Farm latest release and our first in a series of tributes to those mugs of days gone past as part of our all-new “Medallion Series”! “Papua Pingo”, the first in the series, is designed by Ken “Little Lost Tiki” Ruzic, one of our well-established, decades-old contributing artists. Featuring a rope framed-medallion front featuring a close-up of Papua Pingo, with a full-bodied raised bas relief version on the back, what a wonderful, classic and elegant mug. Hey folks, it’s easy to drink from and clean, too! What a concept!
The glaze is intentionally distressed with rich emerald and golden brown hues along with “vintage eggshell” tones (including the interior) for a classic look and feel.
Papua Pingo measures 7 ¼” in height and has a 16 fluid ounce capacity.
