Product Type:
Color Accent Mugs
Product Details
xPrint shops and custom gift businesses reach for the ORCA 11 oz heart handle mug for Valentine's Day, anniversaries, engagements and Mother's Day, since nothing else on the shelf looks like it. It has a colored interior and heart-shaped handle in Pink or Black, 36 per case.
Pink outsells black by a wide margin. The heart opening is smaller than a C-handle and fits two adult fingers, which suits a gift mug. Order in early December for Valentine's, because it sells out most years and there is no mid-season restock.
Personalized ceramic mugs commonly sell for $12 to $22; for example, a Valentine mug at $18 turns one case of pink into $648 against $70.08 in blanks.
