Studio Pottery Owl Mug Damaged

Sweet studio pottery owl mug. The body of the owl is handpainted on the mug and the rest are applied pieces of clay creating a 3D effect. Artist signed and dated 2016. There is a crack on the inside of the mug which is slightly visible on the front by one of the ears (see last 3 pictures). Could be repurposed as a pen holder, small planter or just a display piece. Stands 4" high.
