Hey fellow tikiphiles! Haven't posted for awhile because I've been STUPID busy, though I've had tons of great tiki finds in the interim. Thought I'd poke my head in because I can't seem to identify todays finds.

First is this unmarked coconut.

Standard mat brown glaze, white gloss interior, and like I said, no markings. Has pretty good texture to it, which continues on the base. Thought at first it might be an OMC with the sticker washed off, but the OMC looks like it has a wider mouth, at least from the Ooga Mooga pics. Don't have one in my collection so I can't compare. Any thoughts?

2nd find was this skull mug.

It's obviously based on the Trader Vics pointy chin, which it is just as obviously not. Thought it might be a Tiki Farm, but the detail is much crisper, and the teeth holes are in the wrong place. Also, no markings.

While I'm at it, found this guy a little while back.

Menehune?

EDIT Okay, just after I posted this, I noticed the TINY script on his buttock, saying it is a Coco Joe, like I thought. I guess my new old man glasses work!

Any way, hope to see everyone at Tiki Kon next week. Cheers!
