Blue and yellow pretty Portuguese tiles pattern Mug
Blue and yellow "azulejos" is a Portuguese-inspired tile pattern that fits not only home décor objects but also wearables like clothing and accessories. The essence of this design, known as "azulejo," traces its origins back to the Arabic phrase "small polished stone." Ceramic tiles belong to Portugal's rich history and cultural tapestry. They are a part of the nation's architectural heritage, adorning both the interiors and exteriors of old structures.
In the modern era, tiles have transcended time and tradition, weaving their way into contemporary aesthetics. They infuse their charm into the atmosphere of restaurants, bars, and even transportation hubs like railway and subway stations. Their influence extends to the very heart of homes, where they contribute their artistic flair to interior decoration.
The essence of this elegant seamless tile pattern draws inspiration from the Portuguese tiles I photographed a long time ago in the enchanting Porto district. Blue and yellow colours dance together in harmony close to the botanical elements. Perhaps, in bygone times, the skilled hands of ancient tile artisans found inspiration in the azure expanse of the Atlantic Ocean. And what of the yellow touch that illuminates these patterns? Was it a reflection of the sun's warm light? The "azulejo" pattern stands as a testament to Portugal's creative spirit, which continues to captivate people from around the world, travelers, tourists, and Portuguese artists, inspiring across time and generations.
This product is ideal to send to a Portuguese friend, to a relative, to a Portuguese American or someone of Portuguese descent, or to someone who appreciates Portuguese traditions or the beauty of azulejos.

Love this mug! Zazzle does such a GREAT job - it's shiny, and pretty, and really shows off the whimsical artwork extraordinarily well. You really can't tell how awesome it's going to be until you hold it in your hands. My new favourite mug! The printing was clear, sharp, and beautiful. Really showcased the artwork in true colours. Excellent craftmanship! Couldn't be happier.

Classic Mug, 325 ml
Colors just as bright as shown on-line.
Would be nice if the colour choices for interior & handle on the large mug were as many as on the smaller one.
