Another of the latter wahine bowls has surfaced on eBay:

The seller mentions BigBro's books, is it someone from here? The bowl looks to be in very nice shape, it'll be interesting to see if the bidding approaches the 1.4k the last one went for.

EDIT- by the way I wondered if it might be the same bowl (possible case of buyer's remorse) but if you compare the top-down views of each the glazing drips and runs are distinctly different. They are definitely two different examples of the same bowl design.
