The Harlem Renaissance was a cultural, social and artistic explosion that centered in Harlem in the 1920s and 1930s, pushing creative boundaries for self-expression to new and exciting heights.

Our own original illustrations on the mug pay homage with portrayals of the musicians, artists, and luminaries who helped to build this thriving movement. Included are Duke Ellington on the piano, singer Billie Holiday with signature gardenia tucked behind her ear, Dizzy Gillespie and his trumpet, Josephine Baker in her infamous banana skirt, writer Langston Hughes looking stylish in his fedora, Cab Calloway depicted as a top-hatted bandleader and flapper girls at the iconic and legendary Savoy Ballroom.

Size: 15 oz
Finish: Smooth molded ceramic composite

Natalie T. ★★★★★

The gold handles catch the light beautifully and make it feel more like a keepsake than just a mug. I've been using it daily for my morning coffee and the design still looks as sharp as the day it arrived.

Hannah ★★★★★

The gold accent on the handle looks even richer in person, and the mug holds a good amount of coffee without feeling too heavy. I've been using it every morning since it arrived, and the artwork always gets a compliment from guests. It's become my favorite piece on the shelf.

Timothy V. ★★★★★

The black and gold design really captures that 1920s artistic energy, and the print has held up beautifully through daily dishwasher use. It's become my favorite mug for evening tea, and I've gotten compliments on it from guests every single time.
