"From the waist up, she appears as a beautiful maiden, intoxicating us with her watery song. But once you see her fishy tail, you know you’ve been tricked. The mermaid promises joy but delivers cold, watery graves. Our Tarot series has an arcana of its own. Each mug draws inspiration from the art at individual McMenamins island-inspired bars. Just like tarot cards, the mugs have different meanings when upright or inverted. Made by Munktiki, they’re thrown by hand on a potter’s wheel, then the design is carved, from which a mold is made. After firing they are handpainted and handstamped. Slight imperfections are the nature of handmade."
The first edition was released in 2020, in a turquoise color (Series 1). This second edition is a dark royal blue color (Series 2).
