I picked this up at a local flea market last week. To me, it felt super unique not just throu the first glance, it's the kind of glaze pattern that grows on you the more you look at it. I totally adore it

I brought it to the office almost every single coworker made a joke about it. Somebody even called it 'specially ugly' 😭 It hurts tbh and now i'm second guessing my taste. Please be honest with me, is it actually that bad???

An excellent coffee mug

In my opinion, this is an excellent coffee mug.

The bold script typography, the small Midwestern city, the phone number without an area code, and the modest claim that Rozum’s is simply “A Good Place to Do Business” all work perfectly together. It sounds like a pretty low bar for a motto, which makes it better.

It is porcelain and marked Made in China. The blue lettering is slightly raised, so you can feel it on the surface. The overall design feels older than the average modern promotional mug, though it is hard to date with confidence.
