Friend and neighbour Karen James made me a Kākāpō mug. It has a charismatic Kākāpō, four Kākāpō chicks (in celebration of the 2026 breeding season) and even has some rimu fruit!

A simply spectacular sgraffito ceramic mug with a bold, charismatic Kākāpō parrot taking up most of the visible space. It has a yellow beard and green feathers.

Another side of the mug, two cute grey Kākāpō chicks are visible and three red rimu fruit that look like berries, one on the floor and two hanging from wiry branches.

I love it so much.
