The stained-cup idea is brilliant. Finally, a reward for those who love to linger over their tea!

I also like the "Lazy Teapot". What a blessing that would be for anyone who has physical difficulty manipulating or lifting a teapot (my elderly father would probably love it!).

It's a cool cup, but the asking price is £35 (approx. 50 USD)!

I wonder if there's a way to etch your own designs into old cups?

I don't think I'd ever use it, but that is a neat idea for a teacup :)
