Pretty rare as they go.

The one in the Descendants is not even an Okolehao bottle per se: My version (above) has no type on it, and there is a blue one that says "Vodka" on it in Phil Roberts' "Waikiki Tiki". So I think it was made as a decanter and sold empty. Mine is signed thus:

I think I would agree with that assessment... it's probably a Kay Good. It looks much smaller (in the shot) than the vodka decanter. She apparently did work in Hawaii while/after Adele Davis sold many of her molds to the Daga boys. Same basic period Mid-late 1960's and Early 70's. None of the ceramics professors or kiln operators (from the day) seem to know too much about her. (And no one can as yet tell me anything more about Lokena...)

The Vodka decanter was presumed part of a set with other colored bottles by 'Adele Davis.' I've seen a yellow tall decanter like your green one, Sven.
