That's so cool. Vintage mugs from somewhere other than the US. And man those Spanish mugs are weird. Good weird.

It's been a while since I found anything worth posting. Found this at my favorite junk shop this weekend, so I guess I can stop whining.

Lucky twice in a week. Bucket mug from The Tonga Room... don't think I have any other from there... and a small handled mug from the Fogcutter Gallery and Grog... I can't find much info on that place.

Thanks SDee! I am certainly in your shadow when it comes to great finds... but I suppose I do OK for a Hoosier.

A nice survey of Polynesian pieces from this week, and a couple odds and ends from last week:
Large 30" Maori piece
Tahitian styled tiki:
Little Rarotonga guy:
Pair of PNG. Long one is 33"
Soloman islands canoe
Pucci's glass and a Molokai Mule mug
Another shell lamp, this one embedded in a resin base:
Third one I've found in that last couple months.
Buzzy Out!

A set of two, $75/ea. BUT I found some camera equipment to ebay at the same store, so they're basically free!

I have the same "problem" as Buzzy....tiki grows on trees around here  I actually just found the larger Mainlander mug 2 days ago at a thrift but I like the lettering on yours better.
Don't forget I am an original Hoosier as well

You guys get some great stuff in the US! I might plan a US holiday with some serious trawling for tat
Heres my latest finds! £3.50 / $5 well spent!
Ooga Mooga says the decanter is from Ti-Toki decanter - a liqueur from New Zealand, I wonder how that ended up in the UK?
Please have a look at this thread re using decanters you have found:
http://www.tikiroom.com/tikicentral/bb/viewtopic.php?topic=45667&forum=1&0
The planter says 'Churchill England' on the bottom. I keep finding them so they aren't rare in the UK but I quite like the different colours - does anyone know how many version exist?
The barrel is useless for a drink but fun for keeping skewers in!
