A pig in a Santa hat is pressed right into the side of this speckled stoneware mug, raised in the mold so you can feel the outline under your thumb. The handle and the interior are glazed deep red, a thin green line runs around the rim, and the pedestal foot is striped like a candy cane. It holds the first coffee of Christmas morning, cocoa after the tree goes up, or tea at the end of a long wrapping night. Hand-painted by Mud Pie, it earns a spot on an open shelf the rest of the month.

• Hand-painted speckle stoneware with a raised in-mold pig icon
• Red glazed handle and interior, green rim line, striped pedestal base
