'OlisCupboard' is an Etsy shop that hails from the Czech Republic and sells a variety of playful ceramic mug designs. This particular one is made with a "pillow effect" and sculpted stitching that makes the mug look like it would be soft to the touch. Although it may not be as cushy as an actual pillow, the mug is made with a small rounded handle for easier grip, stacking and storage.
The mug is comprised of completely non-toxic materials and despite looking like it should be fragile, it's totally fine to put it in either the dishwasher or the microwave. The pillowy mug from OlisCupboard sells for just a little over $20 and comes signed by its creator, Oli Divisova.
