JDT is right… I too check out the link.... the description and picture are accurate but doesn't do it justice.... I was lucky enough to snag one at Mai Kai… As I understand it.. (anyone correct me if I’m wrong)… There were supposed to be 50 produced, but 5 didn’t make it in transit… #1 was sold in the auction, and #50 was kept by Mai Kai… that left only 43 to the public… of those a few went to VIP’s for the event… there were only about 25 available by the time the show rolled around…. Mai Kai had close to 900 seats booked for the 3 shows that night…. They were sold out within 5 minutes of the gift shop opening…. If I had to guess this may be one of the rarest Tiki Farm pieces… Forgetting all that for a minute… the decanter is un-freaking-believable…. I bought one blue and one green… the cobalt blue color is very deep and rich… and the green one ain’t to shabby either… The green one is the general production… but I think you can only get it at Mai Kai… I have them on my shelf with the 2 Hukilau/Mai Kai mugs from the dinner show… Well that’s all I know….. really |
