Regency-era mugs, gifts for #19thc children who managed to stick to their books & learn to read. Their mottoes are grim but maybe necessary admonitions, too, for the academic who's soldiering on while coming to terms with the fact that it's August now. I.e. I feel seen. #AcademicLife

The motto painted on a red background on this little mug reads "Idleness Brings Disgrace."

The motto painted on the purple-ish background of this little mug is "Be Willing to do Well without Praise."
