I've had these for years and always wondered about them.20250127_22475120250127_225320

The large one on the left may not have been intended as a mug. The residue on the bottom may have been from a felt pad as on a small planter. The heavy relief picture doesn't appear Hawaiian, but maybe Phillipine. But it could have been from one of those gold foil-type labels seen on some old souvenirs. The middle one is Latour, I believe. Were those used at TV's? The right one is the smallest coconut mug I've ever seen. Unmarked. Any ideas or thoughts on any of these?

How tall is the "small" one on the right?

It mix and matches traits of several coconut mugs I have, but doesn't match anything exactly.

The small one is 3 inches tall and 2.5 across at the opening. The standard Lattitude 20 coconut mug by OMC next to it in the photo is 4 and 1/8 inches tall by 3.25 wide at the opening. 20250128_224827

I'm telling you, it's tiny! Lol

This forum seems strangely quiet.
