love the brown mug..i just wish tiki farm was more careful about keeping the detail sharper on their mugs...it looks like the finish on a tiki leilani mug!! nice though...i ordered a velvet monkey print..where the hell is it?? just kidding...i haven't checked my mailbox yet ..i'm sure it will be there shortly..have a good holiday!!
Hey Doug... thank you very much for the pendant! I dig it the most! Hey Tipsy McStagger, thanks for the tip! You really "know your stuff" yep, we produce to the Leilani standard...:(
awwwwww!! i sense sarcasm.....damn, and right around the holiday season too!! look, it was only an opinion....maybe not an expert opinion but an opinion none-the-less and that's all. I have always liked alot of the tiki farm concepts and designs but was always dissappointed by most of their finishes....i personally (and this may sting a bit) have always prefered the munktiki finihes that they use on their mugs..the designs are sharp and the flat finish really makes the details pop like on older vintage mugs. i know others have expressed the same feelings in the past but would never admit it here...again, just my opinion, however unknowledgable, not meant to slam or hurt, just expressing my view....that's what the forums are all about....talkin and sharing views on the stuff we love...and it doesn't mean i don't/won't buy tiki farm products in the future...of course i will....i'm just more selective and picky.... a good holiday!!
Thanks Dave. We do a dipped (traditional/older mugs) technique vs. a spray (Munktiki - which I also collect:) with reactive (pool in the deep recesses/pop on the high points) as that's our style. At around $10/mug for our mugs, we're about value (i.e. your tipsy friends dropping their mugs after a couple of whopper Mai Tai's) and variety (over 1000 to-date). However being a collector/critic, where in the world does the Leilani correlation come in? I know of a LOT of other older mugs that have more in tune with ours than that mug. Have a smokin' Holiday!
