very small chip on right shoulder

Never thought I'd see this mug for sale. The detail and condition are excellent. You can't even see the small chip unless you know it's there because the color and texture combine for the perfect camouflage.

The Kalua Room was located in the Hotel Windsor in downtown Seattle and operated from the mid 50s. This mug depicts a heavily adorned female figure from the chest up, wearing an elaborate headdress and breastplate. Back has primitive figure with sunburst above its head. The mug is glazed beige with brown flecks over a white base. Similar to artist rendering in vintage drink menu.
