“ADORABLE CERAMIC MUGS”

I LOVE THESE OWL MUGS. SO WELL MADE AND SKILLFULLY HAND PAINTED. THEY MATCH THE OWL PITCHER I BOUGHT PREVIOUSLY. THEY ARE QUITE THE CONVERSATION PIECES.

“Every owl lover should have (at least) one”

I bought the owl mugs to compliment the pitcher and cookie jar I have. They are charming and bring a smile to all who see them. The craftsmanship is excellent and I am certain that the care taken in packing the items for shipping reflects Novica's high standards.
