    If only these cups were in my kitchen! They’re great from a design perspective, and from the looks of this artist’s work, tame compared to the rest of it. Thanks for posting!

    I really don’t know why, but this pleases me to no end. If nothing else, a fantastic conversation piece!

    And I really would buy it .. if it wasn’t $100 for a set of 4.

    They are very appealing. But, three times more than I would pay for them.

    Another thought: Isn’t caffine contraindicated for a healthy lifestyle? Please say “no.” :)
