This sturdy dolomite mug is modelled accurately after a cauldron from Harry Potter – upon one side, the Hogwarts crest is emblazoned in stark white. On the other, the Apothecary Dept. logo sits proudly. The net result is a characterful design that Potter fans will no doubt fall in love with. Everyone who’s read the Harry Potter novels knows the description of the dungeons, where Potions Master Snape teaches students how to bottle fame, brew glory and even put a stopper in death. For those of you who want to relive some of that, this Harry Potter Cauldron Mug is just the thing. As a mug, it’s a sturdy design, built to last, and the size of it makes it perfect for whatever drink you care to put into it. It’s perhaps not-so perfect for brewing potions in, but we here at the Menkind office don’t think anyone’s planning on brewing polyjuice potion in it. Whatever the case, it is not safe to use in a microwave or clean in a dishwasher. We think toothbrush cleaning is safe though, for the real Professor Snape special detention treatment. A brilliant gift for any Potter fanatic, this cauldron mug is sure to hold pride of place in any cupboard (though not necessarily ones under the stairs).
