Headphones on, head down, pen moving: the session has officially started.
This two tone mug stays white on the outside and saves its color for the inside, and it carries a comic-style drawing of a student deep in a notebook with the music on. Because sometimes all you need is the right beat and a good cup of coffee.
The design: a student, a notebook and a pair of headphones
At the center, a student with short dark hair sits facing you at a wooden desk, head bowed and eyes lowered to an open notebook. One hand holds the pen mid-line while the other rests flat on the page. Over-ear headphones in a brick shade cover both ears, and a teal T-shirt finishes the look of someone who settled in a while ago and is not getting up soon.
Books close in from every direction. A stack of three sits at each elbow, their covers in teal, mustard, cream and that same brick tone, with a spare pencil lying off to one side. Higher up, two open books float at the upper corners and three small note slips drift along the edges, as if the ideas had started to lift off the page.
Chunky rounded capitals spell STUDY across the top and BEATS along the bottom, each word gently arched over a dark drop shadow that gives it a sticker-like, 3-D feel. Everything is drawn like a vintage comic panel, with inked outlines and flat, muted colors. It captures a moment every learner knows: the right track comes on, the room goes quiet, and the chapter finally starts to make sense.
A two tone mug with the color tucked inside
- Glossy ceramic gives the inked lines a clean, bright surface to sit on
- The outside stays white, while the rim, the inside and the handle carry the shade you choose from the options
- The drawing is printed on both sides, so it shows whichever hand you lift the mug with
- For gentle care, use a soft sponge and mild dish soap, and leave scouring pads in the drawer
Who it's for
Made for students, night-class regulars, exam-prep coffee drinkers and anyone who cannot open a textbook without pressing play first. Power through your next cram session with it on a dorm desk, a kitchen counter or a home-office shelf. Give it for a student's birthday, a back-to-school send-off, finals week or as a thank-you to a study buddy.
Quick answers
How do I choose between the two sizes?
The 11 oz holds a regular cup of coffee or tea. The 15 oz is the taller pick for long sessions and slow refills. It is offered with some of the interior shades, and the size option shows which ones once you select it.
Is there any music drawn on the mug?
The headphones are the music. There are no notes, speakers or instruments in the picture, so it fits whatever you listen to while you work, from quiet piano to instrumental hip-hop.
Is the student a boy or a girl?
The drawing leaves that open: short dark hair, headphones and a T-shirt, seen from the front. Most people simply see themselves, or the student they are shopping for.
Will the picture look different if I change the inside shade?
No. The artwork and its lettering are identical on every option, so you are only choosing the accent you see when you look into the cup.
