Skull "Morning Courage" Strong Medicine Coffee Mug Handmade Studio Pottery 16 oz

This ridiculously awesome handmade mug features...a lot. On one side you have a sculpted skull wearing a cowboy hat that is backed by a feather headdress and what looks like a spear head. On the opposite side the words "Morning Courage" are carved into the clay with a rough, unglazed background that emphasizes a bold and strong aesthetic. On the handle we find a sculpted bird skull with dots down the center. the outside has a glossy, variable brown glaze with foamy green and blue glazes dripping from the rim. The interior is a rich, dark red, also with the same drip glazes flowing downward. The flat bottom is signed and dated: Savannah [???] 2016, and is unglazed. It holds approximately 16 oz. The mug is heavy and strong, but not so heavy as to be cumbersome. The motif seems to be Strong Medicine, which is so apropos for that first cup of coffee to wake you up and make your day amazing.
