I turned down the earth covered freshly dug up Human skull at the next stall and continued up to the market. Where I found this horror.. ..my wife call it "the most ugly tiki mug ever" and "its not good enough to go on the shelves with your others". This hideous item is the ultimate example of tiki devolution, a cheap hacked wood tourist tiki depicted wearing sunglasses on a beer stein. Its also an example of how imperfect ceramics made in Thailand get sold of to the local market.
