About Tiki Diablo

Tiki Diablo is a Los Angeles ceramics studio making collectible, hand-crafted tiki mugs and drinkware, founded by Danny Gallardo and carried forward today by Stephanie Gallardo.

For over two decades, Tiki Diablo has been at the forefront of the tiki revival, carving bars and venues around the world and crafting the ceramic mugs collectors seek out. Danny built that legacy. Today, Stephanie carries it forward from the same Los Angeles studio, designing and making new work while honoring the craft that built the name. Same hands, same spirit of exotic escapism, a new chapter.

“As one of the first to pick up the chisel and resurrect the forgotten art form of sculpting Tikis, Daniel “Tiki Diablo” Gallardo has been on the forefront of the Tiki revival. His work is equally rooted in ancient tradition as it is in modern stylization. From large Tiki statues to ceramic cocktail mugs to complete Tiki bar interiors, Tiki Diablo’s art is gracing tropical hideaways from Palm Springs to Barcelona and Berlin. His intricate Tiki carvings can be found in theme parks, drive-in theaters and home Tiki bars.”
