With your simple pet mug you get
-
A beautiful mug with a line drawing style portrait ie. the key contours that make up your pet's face and neck. This style does not include fur or eye detail, including differences in coloring on bi-colored pets. If what makes your pet looks most like themselves key to their markings, I would recommend the Standard pet mug instead.
-
Standard handle with the option to upgrade to the signature laminated handle. The standards handle is the style you'll find on most mugs around, whether handmade or manufactured.

or Signature handle (adds $10 to the mug price) The signature handle style that I previously included on all of my pet mugs, but now is included as an optional add on to make sure my mug prices remain accessibly priced to my customers. The laminated handle is made by taking a long, thin handle, which is folded in half to create a tiered and slightly textured handle that is incredibly comfortable to hold, and an interesting extra bit of detail. Please note: Limited supply available of the signature handle mugs.
Each pet portrait mug is as one of a kind as your cherished pet. Your mug is custom-made from start to finish. Inspired by photos and stories you share with me, I will hand draw your pet’s portrait, send you sketches and work with you until you feel I have captured their likeness just right! From there I hand draw the portrait into the slip which leaves a slightly textured drawing similar to an engraving once the piece is finished.
This style of pet mug is the most accessible to all, and the pricing reflects that. This style of portrait takes much less of my time with the omission of fur detail but will still beautifully capture your pet's personality.
Each mug holds 12-14 ounces of your favorite beverage and as each mug is handmade they vary slightly in size, but if you buy two or more I will do my best to make them as similar as possible! I cannot guarantee size matches for mug re-orders, unfortunately.
