Bought at Trader Vics Thailand in 2001 - the manager really gouged me on the price, but I wanted a Tiki Mug souvenir! Hey, I was on my honeymoon.... Go here for more pics: http://www.christophermerritt.com/family/TraderVicsThailand/Trader_Vics.html

This is a copy of a vintage Otagiri mug. The mug is of a stylized moai, more narrow at the top, and having distinctive large, rounded eyeballs. The glaze on this mug is an even honey-brown, while the vintage version is two-toned, with beige overlaid with a darker streaky brown with a white interior and concave base.
