A surprise from Hand Ceramics Putaruru:
a mug in the shape of a naked female torso.

11cm H, base marked as in photo

This looks like it would be a bit difficult to drink from.

Heheee I made some of those shapes in the 80's and thought they were unique until I saw the Putaruru ones on TM .....

nude body mug Empty What to do with it?

Some way or another my dad ended up with this mug. While a beautiful figure it's not really my taste. My dad has since passed and I have no idea what to do with it.

You could put it on TradeMe or another sales site. I ended up buying one so I had an example. It is nicely sculpted.
