The Yule Cat of the High Peaks – Winter Mug (20 oz)

Long before electric lights and heated kitchens, winter was a season to be taken seriously.

In Icelandic folklore, the Yule Cat prowled the cold months—an immense creature said to watch the mountains and the valleys below, rewarding the prepared and unsettling the careless. It was a story meant to sharpen attention as the year turned dark and quiet.

This Water Mountain Monster Series mug carries that winter sentinel forward.

One side features the full Yule Cat badge: the cat rising from snowbound peaks, watchful and still. The reverse bears the minimalist mountain glyph—eyes hidden in stone, a reminder that the landscape itself is never entirely asleep. Together, the two designs balance myth and modern restraint, making the mug as comfortable on a desk as it is beside a winter fire.

At 20 ounces, it’s built for the season—ample enough for long coffee mornings, heavy teas, or whatever keeps the cold at bay. The glossy ceramic finish holds the artwork clean and sharp, while the sturdy construction stands up to daily use, dishwashers, and the occasional reheating when winter distracts you.

This is a mug for snow days, early darkness, and deliberate pauses. A winter object, meant to be reached for again and again until the light returns.
