Augie Colon Tiki Mug in White Bone Test Glaze
aka. Sophisticated Savage Mug in White Bone Test Glaze
I believe this is the same Bone colour Gecko chose for the limited run of 25 after the 25 artist proofs in Brown.
Distinguishing Characteristics
Test glaze with slight red wash in the mouth. I think Gecko was trying to see if he could get the same look from the Bone edition, without cutting out the mouth as he had with the artist proof Brown mugs.
