The Memento Mori Cups are a range of mugs and cups created by ceramics artist Trevor Foster that have a macabre aesthetic in order to help users maintain their focus on living life to its fullest potential. The mugs have a skull-shaped design that's quite realistic and come in several size options to make them suitable for hot drinks or cold beverages alike. The cups and mugs come in a red iron oxide finish that give them a truly rustic look as well as pastel options in orange, pink, yellow and lime to help brighten up the dark drink ware.
The Memento Mori Cups are suited for your choice of drink, but could even be used as decor for placing small plants or other household essentials.
