I have wanted a giggling mug from this store for a very long time! I was so excited to finally be able to purchase one. The one of a kind piece of ART was lovingly wrapped for delivery and far exceeded delivery timeline, and quality! 😍

Thanks very much! Looks like he found a good home :) Enjoy!

Absolutely gorgeous! The work & artistry that went into this is beyond words. The eyes, the little arms, the bellybutton, and THE TEETH! Everything about this mug is amazing. The glazing/painting is phenomenal. And let me tell you about the best part! When you drink coffee (in a sloppy manner, like I do) and the coffee dribbles down the back of the mug, it collects in the little guy's butt crack! It's SO ADORABLE!!!!! I'VE NEVER MADE SUCH A PERFECT PUTCHASE IN MY ENTIRE LIFE! I HAVE NAMED HIM: "PHLERG Mc DERBLEGERB the VI of Clan McDERBLEGERB"

So glad that to hear that - and you've named him too! Say hello to Phlerg for me. Thanks again!

I began making pottery years ago, and along the way I discovered sculpting. It's always a challenge to create a piece which is unique - facial expressions, color and design.
