This is my favorite mug.  I am always looking for the perfect mug.  I purchased this mug to decorate my kitchen - I am using turquoise, orange and green in my kitchen and I like to hang mugs.  The enamel is very high quality and the shape and size of the mug is perfect for drinking coffee daily.  The handle is very comfortable. I love it! I purchased 3 blue, 2 green and 2 orange, after trying the blue one first.  The co.ors are perfect in my kitchen, and are very elegant looking in a practical sort of elegance fro everyday.
