This is a melamine plastic bowl with a standing Lucky Tiki in the center. It is part of a larger set of items, including a 13" diameter platter and 10" diameter bowl with similar designs. All of the items originally had a foil tag that read: "High Impact Plastic Hand Painted Designs by International Mercantile Corp. Japan." Also issued in green as seen with a platter in Tiki Quest (page 162).
