Collection: TIKI GLASSES

Tiki culture became popular in the 1930s when Polynesian-themed restaurants started popping out of Hollywood. In Maori culture, Tiki is the first man created by the primary god of war and human activities, Tumatauenga.

However, the word tiki became a common term to describe South Pacific culture. This grew into its own genre, which became a popular theme in restaurants, bars, and backyard activities until the 1990s.
