About This Design

Bull in a China Shop Mug

Bull in a China Shop Mug

The phrase "As careful as a Bull in a china shop" usually refers to someone who is clumsy in word or deed. For example a clumsy person in a room full of fragile items or a person who behaves in a way insensitive toward other people. There is some uncertainty of the origin of this phrase, but, it was first recorded in the novel Jacob Faithful by Frederick Marryat around 1834. This phrase has found itself as a part of popular culture, from popular songs, to TV shows. In fact, on a show that bust myths, they showed that a bull in a china shop really isn't that bad. In a confined space bulls rarely move in erratic and clumsy ways, examples included pens and trailers. This illustration is of a bull shopping around a china shop, and accidently breaks a china bowl.

Creator Review
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.

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.

This mug exceeded expectations! The quality is great and the prints turned out clear and crisp. The shipping also came in way faster than anticipated! All in all, very worth it! Thank you! The image quality was great!
