"The cups are just wonderful. The paper ones became my best friends in
art school, in Boston. When I hold one of the ceramic ones, I'm taken back
to those wonderful days!"

"..I was telling my wife jennie just the other day, that one of the the silliest
things i miss about living in new york, are the somehow wonderful blue and white, greek-themed paper cups that are so ubiquitous thereI remember so fondly, drinking tea or coffee from those cups with a great bagel from Essa, or H&H...it just always felt so comforting...so right....well - the very next day we were shopping in seattle and lo and behold in velocity art and design was a perfect ceramic replica of my beloved greek paper cup! no f**in way! (way!)they are perfect! the matte finish, the color, the "paper" notches and seams.
I just had to write to thank you for this little piece of genius!
we bought a bunch of them and i haven't had my coffee at home in anything else since! a fan,"

"I've just gotten up, head to the breakfast table at my friend's place in Delhi. A New Yorker working out here. Coffee and laptops abound. Am offered the wake up drug. He says.. have it in this mug.. a friend of mine bought it as a NY memento.
A ceramic replica of a paper cup "We are happy to serve you". Even the little paper fold on the mug. Very cool. Made me smile. So enjoy that your mug is living the Delhi life!"

"Thank you for making my day. I am an exile in Los Angeles and my friend just handed me one of your cups as a gift in the lobby of my office building. The moment I felt the “seam” I started laughing uncontrollably. Only my fried (a fellow NY ex-pat) understood just how much this cup means."
