Grail #5 Tiki Rob Tiki Bob Lava
Lot Title: Tiki Rob “Tiki Bob” Lava Edition — #131 of 150, One-of-a-Kind
This striking ceramic mug is part of the legendary Tiki Bob Lava series by the late Tiki Rob (Rob Hawes), one of the most revered artists in the modern Tiki movement. This particular mug is numbered 131/150, but as with each in the series, it is a true one-of-one — no two pieces in the edition were alike.
Featuring a rugged black lava-textured exterior and a vivid red interior glaze, this piece exemplifies Tiki Rob’s signature blend of bold form and meticulous glazing. The base is hand-signed by the artist and includes the edition number.
With Rob Hawes’ passing, these works have become increasingly scarce and highly sought after by collectors. This mug stands not only as a functional piece of art, but as a lasting tribute to his impact on the world of handcrafted Tiki ceramics.
An exceptional opportunity to own a unique work from a beloved artist whose legacy continues to shape the Tiki art community.
