Bird Skeletons Osteology Illustration Frosted Glass Mug 11 oz

These surprisingly cheerful-looking skeletal birds are vintage illustrations from 1879! They're gathered together here presumably to discuss your beverage options amongst themselves. The species featured on this mug are the willow ptarmigan (Lagopus lagopus), little ringed plover (Charadrius dubius), Brazilian ruby hummingbird (Heliodoxa rubricauda), long-tailed hermit hummingbird (Phaethornis superciliosus), little owl (Athene noctua), and pied crow (Corvus albus). (They are not pictured in proportion to one another in size.)

This is the perfect piece for bird watchers, science illustrators, bone collectors, ornithologists, osteologists, biologists, zoologists, probably most types of ologist you can think of honestly. Who doesn't like skeletal birds?

The sturdy 11 ounce frosted glass mug lends the illustration a dreamy vintage softness on the mug's exterior, which shows up stronger and more saturated through the clear side of the mug's interior. Please note that while forced perspective may make the mug look as if it has slanted walls in some of the pictures, it is in fact a straight-sided mug! Please refer to the video for the most detailed view of this item.

Hand washing is recommended; the high heat of dishwashers can cause designs applied to dishware to fade over time, so hand washing will help keep your mug looking great long-term.
