Earlier in this thread were a couple of examples of Kokeshi Japanese doll mugs from Orchids of Hawaii and Benihana, but the above are pics of one I've never seen before from OMC that was used at the Fuji-En Japanese Restaurant in Denver, CO.

I added an Ooga-Mooga template for them at http://www.ooga-mooga.com/cgi-bin/all/mug.cgi?mode=view&mug_id=9345

Saw them listed on eBay as "Geisha Vases" at http://www.ebay.com/itm/Set-Of-2-7-75-Tall-Porcelain-Vases-Shaped-Like-Geishas/192302084646?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D46657%26meid%3Dbff590c7fba5467d8b076c6b8a72cc14%26pid%3D100678%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D14%26sd%3D322779093045&_trksid=p2481888.c100678.m3607&_trkparms=pageci%253Aad4bef3c-a74b-11e7-b1a8-74dbd180dc0f%257Cparentrq%253Adc33733615e0aa4824ab70fbfffdc0fd%257Ciid%253A1

I think there are still many asian themed mugs and bowls from both OMC and Orchids of Hawaii left to be discovered. Probably unnumbered.

I don't have room to collect everything, but thought that these deserved to be documented with some screen captures.
