Tiki: the first man

The Tiki culture was born in 1933 and is inspired by the Māori, the poisonous poisonous indigenous people of New Zealand. In Māori mythology, Tiki is the first man created by the gods. Today, Tiki refers to a wooden or stone sculpture with human appearance.

Origins of Tiki culture

A young New Orleans, Ernest Raymond Beaumont Gantt, traveled for the Pacific and used cultural and culinary impressions gathered to create the first True Tiki restaurant in 1933. He offered Cantonese cuisine and exotic punch at the Rum, with decorations made of flaming torches, rattan furniture, floral garlands and brightly colored fabrics. The Māori sculptures, the performative arts and mythology inspired the first Tiki design.

After the Second World War, the soldiers returned from the missions in the Pacific leading home souvenirs and stories. This brought to a growing interest and promotion of Tiki culture.

Kon-Tiki shipping

The Tiki culture received a further pushed in 1947, when Thor Heyerdahl organized the Kon-Tiki expedition: a journey through the Pacific Ocean from South America to the Polynesian Islands. Heyerdahl believed that South American peoples could have colonized Polynesia in pre-Columbian times. To prove it, built a raft with local materials, inspired by ancient designs. The enthusiasm for his expedition took to an explosion of Tiki culture.
