MAURIZIO CATTELAN - MUG - FINGERS
Best conversation starter for contemporary design enthusiasts.
Pulled from the pages of Maurizio Cattelan and Pierpaolo Ferrari's provocative image-only magazine Toilet Paper, this mug features an image of severed, bejeweled fingers. This design, which recently appeared on a billboard atop Manhattan's High Line Park, is as charmingly absurd as the rest of the artist's oeuvre. It's a statement piece that brings a touch of avant-garde art to your daily routine.

Its distinctive aesthetic, a collaboration with Maurizio Cattelan, is a primary draw, making it a popular choice for those seeking unconventional home decor or a memorable gift.

Know before you buy
This mug is crafted from enameled metal, which gives it a distinct, lightweight feel compared to traditional ceramic mugs.
No, because this mug is made of enameled metal, it is not microwave-safe.
While the enameled finish is durable, we recommend hand washing to preserve the vibrancy of the printed artwork over time.
The mug stands 3.9 inches tall with a diameter of 3.5 inches, making it a standard size for your morning coffee or tea.
The design is integrated into the enameled surface, making it quite resilient, though it should be handled with care to avoid abrasive cleaning tools that could scratch the finish.
