Here is a mug I made for our tiki room! It is hand built from slabs and has bamboo impressions on the body itself, then the tiki was applied! It has not been bisqued or glazed yet, so this is in its greenware state!
This is the back, before I inscribed "The Enchanted Wiki-Wiki Room"
Front Detail
Here are the pictures of the finished product. Came out pretty nice! I wish I had made the engraved words look better...maybe next time. Thanks for looking!

Well done! Always nice to see the homemade mugs. Is this a one-off or are you going into production?

Thanks guys! Eventually, we would like to make more to stock our tiki room but I haven't figured out the workings of making mug molds. We'll see! Thanks for the comments!

it would be easy to mold just the mask and them apply to the cup which you could hand make again.

Here are some pictures of the new Wiki Wiki Room bowls that my fiance made. The first one is our Volcano Bowl with insert.
Greenware:
After Glazing:
Here is the other, a take on a Moai Scorpion Bowl. It came out smaller then expected and probably not going to be big enough for a well made Scorpion, so we will probably use it to serve snacks out of.
In both, the glazes broke sorta of wierd, but hey, thats the nature of the beast with kilns. Overall, its worth saying it again, it is nice to have your own home bar mugs.

Hey, cool! I like the glaze on both the mug and the wiki wiki bowl. You said it broke weird, I like weird. Keep it up!
