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

Treabhair is the Irish for Trevor, and is pronounced "tra-vur".

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 T is decorated with a bull (tarbh, in Irish). The main inspiration for this was the Legend of Táin Bó Cúailnge (the Cattle Raid of Cooley) which is an epic of early Irish literature. It tells the story of a cattle raid organised by Queen Maeve (Méabh) of Connacht to steal the famous brown bull of Cooley. Due to a curse placed on the King and warriors of Ulster, the teenaged Cú Chulainn is the lone defender of the bull. Bulls and cattle were an important symbol of wealth in the ancient world. In the Book of Kells a bull (or calf) is used to represent the Gospel of St. Luke, and represents Christ’s sacrifice. This bull is brown, like the bull of legend, but also has some decorations as a tribute to St Luke’s symbol in the Book of Kells.

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.
