"...(Tiki mugs) transcend their practical purpose (that of holding an alcoholic beverage) and become a gateway to an exotic locale/mindset. When you drink from a tiki mug, you are escaping the everyday and exploring the mysterious...The mug does not even have to be used for drinking - just seeing it and holding it makes you think of far away places and adventurous deeds." -VanTiki- That is not only a brilliant descriptions of the appeal of the Tiki mug but it also nails down the lure of Tiki in general.
