Here she is at last. We have heard many comments that we need to grow our collection of reptiles and amphibians so we went to the drawing board, and a year later, she arrived. She is very proud of her "noticeable", vivid skin with fashionable random spots. You may think she is a newt. I won't argue the point. In fact we aren't really sure if she is really a she. We do know she holds about 8 ounces of coffee, tea or milk, but looks very elegant planted with a small plant such as a mini succulent or tiny fern. We hear so often that customers use these mugs to hold makeup tools, pens and pencils and small bar tools. Our original design, like all our mugs. Our mugs are made of high fired ceramic material and are entirely hand painted. They are microwave and dishwasher safe. Because they are painted by our supplier's own artists, you may see some color variations from time to time or from batch to batch. Welcome, slimy friend.
