Tiki-Kate's Last Tiki Mug
aka Tiki-Kate's New Home in 1 collection
This is the urn that holds the ashes of Tiki-Kate, the much-beloved Ooga-Mooga mug expert.
Kate passed away in 2010 after a battle with cancer. She asked her dear friend, the mug artist Dave "Squid" Cohen, to create this urn for her. She was able to see it, in pre-fired form, before she passed away.
The urn has four Papua New Guinea-style shields, protecting her on all sides. It is topped with a small Papua New Guinea tiki, to guard her forever, and keep her company.
