This elegant latte mug features four beautifully rendered pigeons, adapted from hand-colored steel engravings in Prideaux John Selby’s 1835 The Natural History of Pigeons. The original illustrations were created by Edward Lear—best known for his whimsical limericks, but also a respected natural history artist. Lear depicted these domesticated pigeon breeds at the London Zoological Gardens, highlighting their ornate plumage and distinctive postures.

The birds on this mug are inspired by a porcelain vase from Marjorie Merriweather Post’s personal collection, where factory artists brightened the plumage and faithfully echoed Lear’s compositions. A graceful blend of art, history, and design, this mug brings a touch of Hillwood’s elegance to your everyday routine.
