This is a classic Ku dredged from the bottom of the sea with barnacles, brain coral, and a fishing net still wrapped around him. Concept by Martin Cate and sculpted by Crazy Al. There is an open edition that was first made in a light cream with a light green overglaze. Later versions of the open edition are noticeably darker. Crazy Al also produced 48 artist proof versions of this mug in individualized multi-colored glazes. This version was made exclusively for the book tour with the new "Ports O' Call" brown glaze.
