Bookshelf Full Wrap Mug – Design 12 | Scholar's Attic | Gift for Book Lovers

For the reader who has a complicated relationship with the concept of a shelf. Design 12 wraps the entire mug in a gloriously precarious scene of teetering stacks — thick antique leather-bound volumes in dark olive, teal, burgundy and aged cream piled high with no particular regard for structural integrity, with old lanterns, ink bottles and trailing ivy tucked into the gaps. The kind of collection that belongs in a forgotten scholar’s attic, discovered decades later and immediately declared a treasure.

A brilliant gift for history buffs, antique book hunters, dark academia enthusiasts and anyone who considers a teetering stack of old books a perfectly acceptable interior design choice. Hand-pressed in our Sussex studio and finished with our 1-Year Print Guarantee — if the print fades or peels under normal use, we’ll replace it. Packed in double-walled smash-proof packaging and dispatched ready to gift.
