Wahine With Hibiscus Flowers - by Eekum Bookum - for Esotico Miami

in 11 collections

This mug is shaped like the head of a dark-haired Polynesian wahine with hibiscus blossoms in her hair.

The mug hearkens back to 1960s era chalkware head busts put out by Marwal (and other lesser known companies) which among other themes, had a line of native Polynesian girl head busts wearing hibiscus flowers in their hair.

Each mug comes with an actual unique necklace strung around the neck that can be removed and worn by the owner.
