Three Dots and a Dash Fijian Mermaid Mug Teal Blue Wipe Glaze
aka Three Dots and a Dash Fiji Mermaid First Edition, Three Dots and a Dash Feejee Mermaid in 70 collections
This is a mug shaped like a Fijian Mermaid sideshow gaffe. The Fijian mermaid (also Fiji or Feejee mermaid) was an object comprising the torso and head of a juvenile monkey sewn to the back half of a fish. It was a common feature of sideshows, where it was presented as the mummified body of a creature that was supposedly half mammal and half fish. Designed by THOR and produced by Tiki Farm. Released for the First Anniversary celebration of Three Dots And A Dash. Glazed with a teal blue hand-wiped glaze, leaving much of the mug white, but picking out details in teal blue.
There was a second edition in a purple wipe glaze, and later editions in a red wipe, regular blue wipe, and a lighter aqua blue wipe glaze.
