I like this mug! It feels good! Has a good weight and that neck of his is the perfect spot for a finger to wrap around and give the support you need to hold him when he's full of some wonderful beverage. Won't drop this fella! Nah uh uh!
Goin' Primitive Mug in Wildsville Brown #9
TantricTiki
I copied this from the Artist's own words:
"Even though this is Number 9 of 25, I almost consider this one a test glaze because it was treated different from the rest to get a different effect. I hand dipped it and then fired it and then sprayed it with another coat to make it look like a coconut shell. As I loved this style my artist and partner did not so the rest we all just sprayed. This mug is much darker and has different shades throughout. Because of the dip n' spray it has these cool bubbles baked into them that are solid and add some cool texture to this mug. Signed on the bottom by myself "Wildsville Man" and numbered.
See the pics I took of the bubbles and the color variation between mugs. I own two of them.
Distinguishing Characteristics
This one was dipped and sprayed. The result was a darker mug with teeny tiny bubbles in the glaze.

Viva Las Vegas 9 Tiki Mug Green

I bought this mug in 2006 from an art student in Colorado. He said the story behind it was, "after getting drunk on one too many tiki drinks one night, some girl at the party trying to help, loaded up the dishwasher and washed the UN-MACHINE-WASHABLE mug.. When it came out of the dishwasher the next day, the latex paint from the eyeball was everywhere. He literally had to chip it off (carefully). Once he had a clear, green mug. He pulled out his paints and started on bringing #9 back to life. What he came up with isn't overdone and to say the least, makes for a unique mug. One may argue this hurts the value, others may feel it is enhanced by this "second coat of paint". Personally, it feels good to have such a unique mug.
