Monkey Cup - Drunken Monkey Cup by Van Tiki

VanTiki's Description:
Unlike this mug’s 249 siblings - number 230 may have had a bit too much grog. Or, in all honesty, perhaps it should be admitted that when the upper section of the mug was taken out of the mold a bit of a panicked near drop occurred. Please note - it was a NEAR DROP - not an ACTUAL DROP. Nonetheless, when I grabbed the falling bowl section, I may have squeezed it a bit in my panicked state. After some diligent re-shaping (while crying), we thought we had things straightened out - but in the glaze firing the wobble returned! I couldn’t bring myself to destroy the mug over a bit of a wibble wobble.
