Alaois (Louis) - Personalized white glossy mug with Irish name Alaois (Free Shipping)

Personalized mug with the Irish language name Alaois - a novel Irish gift for a birthday or Christmas.

Alaois is an Irish equivalent for Louis, Lewis, Louie or Luis, and can be pronounced "ah-lay-as".

All elements are hand-drawn and include Celtic designs and calligraphy. The edges are Celtic knot-work, as inspired by traditional art and the Book of Kells.

The letter A is decorated with a trinity knot and a salmon fish. For this I was inspired by the story of the Salmon of Knowledge (Bradán Feasa in Irish) from the Fenian Cycle of Irish Mythology. In this story the young Fionn mac Cumhail (Finn McCool) accidentally acquires all the wisdom of the universe by unintentionally eating a piece of the salmon of knowledge while he was preparing it for his master Finnegas. He burnt his thumb while cooking, and to soothe the pain of the blister he placed his thumb in his mouth, thereby consuming some of the fish.

Whether you're drinking your morning coffee, evening tea, or something in between—this mug's for you! It's sturdy and glossy with a vivid print that'll withstand the microwave and dishwasher.
