Great find Tipsy. It's from the Hilton Hawaiian Village. In Hawaii. I think it was for the drink called the Diamond Head. "Anyone who has ever seen them is thereafter haunted as if by a feverish dream" Karl Woermann [ Edited by: uncle trav 2008-03-29 16:01 ] |

Nice find Tipsy! There's also a tiki version of this triangle mug design figured on Page 20 of Tiki Quest. Although there is a template, there are no pics of that one on Ooga yet. Kate...any chance the template for the female triangle mug could be updated with the great info Tipsy has included in this thread? :) |
