I would have thought it was a coconut. The scenario I imagine is that perhaps drinks were served in real coconuts and pineapples, but this got tedious and expensive for the bar, so someone thought of making ceramic ones. And from there it naturally progressed to tikis.
This is all purely conjecture however.
