Aloha everyone,

I've got a few vintage tiki items on eBay, and very kindly, someone informed that one was mislabeled and is actually a, Spurlin Aku fog cutter. I didn't know anything about Spurlin, but apparently, they were one of the first tiki mug manufacturers during the 1960's, in California, and were a small scale manufacturers. I was told it's identifiable by the glaze ID.

I know nothing about vintage ceramics so please do your research. Anyhow, here it is, the Spurlin Aku fog cutter:

If you want to do your own research, here's some of the first things that popped up when I Googled Spurlin Ceramics.

I'm also running a 20% sale in my eBay store through the weekend.
Hopefully, somebody who's shopped with me at Don the Beachcomber's, The Tonga Hut, or Tiki Caliente will stop by and endorse my product. :) Hopefully!!!...

My hand made, durable, cone 10 ceramics with a touch of primitive modernism:
