50+ Awesome Mugs That Serve Beyond Their Initial Purpose

If you are right-handed, glance to your right, and vice versa if you are left-handed. If you are a true ambivert, congratulations. Anyway, there is a good chance that some awesome mugs will be on either side. Coffee, tea, perhaps just water, it does not matter; we humans love a suitable, sturdy vessel to drink from.

The “Mug Life” internet group is dedicated to sharing the more creative, unique, awesome, and unhinged mugs people drink from every day. So pour yourself another mug of your beverage, scroll through, upvote your favorite posts, and comment your ideas below. (H/T)

Mugs are one of those items we tend to have way more than necessary. Realistically, you will never be drinking from more than one mug at a time, yet true mug fans could probably use a different one each day of the week without breaking a sweat. Like t-shirts, the design is simple, but the possibilities are endless for colors, designs, and shapes.

Of course, the true sign of a mug fanatic is the steady escalation in size, as some people wield mugs large enough to become a deadly weapon and deep enough to fit an entire pot of coffee. While there is little academic literature on this, one wonders if a dominance display happens when two mug fanatics work in the same office.

These days, custom designs like the abovementioned t-shirts can be made and ordered in print shops or online. While there is less control over the shape and materials, people now can have almost anything they want to be put on a mug, which turns this drinking item into a vessel and display piece of a person’s creativity.

Part of the ubiquity of mugs also comes from the fact that they are great gifts, particularly for smaller events or if one does not know the recipient that well. Prices have a decent range; you know the item will be helpful, and it’s often on display, so one doesn’t have to feel like the gift was received, then discarded. Plus, you can easily add some personalization, like the print mentioned above or design, to make it stand out from the millions of other factory-identical mugs.

Some people take their obsessions a bit too seriously. Charles Hubbell was a Tennessee man who accumulated almost 30 ‘000 mugs in a unique collection before passing away in 2019. Hopefully, his collection was preserved after his passing, but at the very least, one could build an entire house just from the materials required to manufacture and paint 30 ‘000 mugs.

Setting aside the modern office or tea parlor, the mug design is one of those genuinely ancient things we still use today. Clay mugs, made by early potters, date back to between 6000 and 3000 BCE, while there is some indication that the first wooden mugs were even older. After all, we’ve needed to drink things forever, and scooping up water with one’s hands seems downright annoying.

My fiancé and I go to many estate sales, and we got this at one a while back. I’m currently 36 and being sterilized in the fall, so this is one of my favorite mugs. I hope you all think it’s as funny as we do.

We look forward to sharing more of our funds in the future.

Early clay mugs suffered from how thick the vessel’s walls had to be, so only people with more enormous mouths could use them without discomfort. Mugs better suited to our bodies came with early metalworking techniques in about 2000 BCE, when gold, silver, bronze, and even lead were used. It indicates how important a good mug is that the first metals were used to make them.

These days, the full force of our creativity and scientific knowledge is used to make cutting-edge mugs. From fuddling cups that limit spillage to mugs that change color or reveal images when heated, we are positively spoiled regarding options. Never before have there been so many materials, shapes, and colors to choose from, possibly explaining why everyone has at least a few different mugs.

People have so many mugs that we have even had to innovate storage methods. The mug tree is an excellent example on ships, as long as the base is well secured to the floor, while others will present their collection as a visual display, mounted and behind glass. But for most of us, the everyday cupboard is enough.

Some might start to question the form of the mug, as it’s not that different from a cup or glass. The simple way to tell them apart is to focus on the handle. Traditionally, mugs carry very cold or quite hot beverages, which naturally change the temperature of the item’s walls. A handle allows for it to be handled, no pun intended, without discomfort to the user’s hand, similarly, no pun intended.

These days, we have the technology to limit heat or cold, but most people still feel comfortable with the classic, flat-based, handled mug. Why fix what isn’t broken? These tend to have flat walls, making displaying images and texts with personal flair easy. And if you want to see other exciting mugs, look no further; A&D has got you covered; you can find our other collections here, here, and here.
