Vintage Fitz and Floyd Bird Hatching From Egg Vase Mug Ceramic Signed Dated 1977

Fantastic vintage hand painted Fitz and Floyd, Inc. ceramic pen vase or mug depicts a chick hatching from it's "shell". The main color is cream and the only embellishment is the chick's face and feather, as he makes his way out of the shell. This piece still has the original hand painted sticker on the side and is signed and dated on the bottom. This piece is 4-1/4 inches tall and in good condition for its age, please view all photos carefully - there are some very small black dots or possibly splatters on the left side of the item, they could be removed but I do not wish to add any damage in trying to get them off. The bottom of this item is signed and dated.
