Part of the Furniture Now
This is one I like. Nothing special, a simple, cheap and apparently a promotional gift, mug. But it has a... history. When I entered in my previous house, about 20 years ago (a friend of mine was living there before me and another common friend before him), I found in a cupboard some plates, glasses and mugs. I used all of them and when I left after 8 years for my new (and current) house, I took them with me.
Now only a couple of plates and this mug still exist, the others have broken during washing e.t.c.
So, when I drink with this one... well, I kind of travel in time...

I used to collect souvenir ceramic mugs, and have a few of them.

I switched to porcelain a couple of years back - and have been using Royal Albert mugs since (Serves Dual Purpose for a mug of coffee or a large cup of tea)

However the most interesting ceramic is one where we have a person smoking a pipe (JimInks thinks it is his portrait)
