Has anybody seen or have any of the new Shakatiki vessels?
You can see them at

They look cool, just wondering what they are like....

I was wondering about that too. Right away I went to see how much they cost, but no info or any links or anything. They look cool though. It would be neat to own the whole set.

Yeah, what's up with their web site? There's not a shred of information on contact or cost!

Wow, those are really original! And it looks like they haven't seen much in the way of traditional tiki to influence them too far in that direction. They look nicely made! Lots of different textures. Maybe made from resin?

These are not available yet. Go to www.harmonykingdom.com and check out their dealer page to find out who might be carrying them or call them and ask them to order them when they are ready to ship.

Really bad knock offs. Knock offs if they were half as good. Look like plastic. www.munktiki.com all the way when it comes to this.

I called Harmony Kindgdom.
They are resin. Highly textured. Very cool. They resemble Tiki sculptures with a nice twist. I don't think they qualify as knock offs! Tiki itself is a knock off of Oceanic art. Check out the mermaid one.

Gee, I sure do wish they'd join TC so that we could ask them questions. oh where, oh where could they be? 
having said that, I dig the drum mug (don't I always?)

Thanks for the link to gbread.com, Tiki-Kate. I tried to contact them by email, and both phone numbers listed, but there seems something strange happening with them. I would use caution if anyone was to place an internet order with them prior to making personal contact with someone by phone.

TWB, you are right. I "placed an order" with them only to have my order never sent and a bunch of unauthorized charges on my credit card. Fortunately, the credit card company noticed irregular activity and stopped the credit card. I'm not saying it was them, but it is a weird coincidence. I have sent a couple e-mails and have received no replys. BEWARE!

Nice mugs but....resin?
Look at some of the other companies they have under their umbrella - a whole lot of cheese. I may be horribly wrong, but they strike me as a company like the Franklin Mint selling 'collectables' to the great unwashed.

Thanks for the update, Atomicchick. I passed the link to a friend of mine and before I notified him, he had placed an order with them as well. I just found out the same thing happened with his credit card... many unauthorized charges were placed on it and his bank had just notified him.
BUYERS BEWARE of gbread.com!!!!
