Ceramic Mug with Violet Fine Art: Family Portrait

First I was disappointed that such a beautiful mug had too much white space right-hand of the image, i. e. left from the handle. But then I found a way to change the mug into an irresistible beauty. Now I love it and look at it again and again. (See my comment on the "printing". The printing of the image is awesome! The colors look even better than on the photo! But this time they didn't manage to center it vertically. There was a white area of nearly 20 mm (.87") left from the handle. That disturbed me a lot but I painted a bar of 15 mm (.69") with a waterproof and soap-proof glossy black permanent marker next to the image. The image has very dark purple-grey borders on the top and the bottom. So the black border on the right of the image looks very good and like the original print. Right from the handle there is a white space of 10 mm (.39"). That is good. When mugs have dark images, the white spaces near the handles are generally not good. The design software should be changed a little. Then the manufacturers could find a way to print closer to the handles.

I was originally happy about my purchase and Nana loved the gift. HOWEVER, the description specifically says that these are microwave and dishwasher safe, BUT the first time Nana put this mug in the dishwasher it was destroyed. Not impressed..

Nana is going to love this gift from her granddaughter! Good quality mug. Photos turned out good, colours are true as expected!
