Product information "Mug Marilyn Pink 0.25 l"
Pink, pop art and a look that makes coffee wait for a second
The MEISSEN Marilyn Pink Mug 0.25 L from the MEISSEN X Michael Moebius collection brings film history, contemporary pop art and fine porcelain into a beautifully usable everyday form. On brilliant white hard porcelain, Marilyn appears with platinum blonde hair, a soft gaze and a pink bubble gum bubble that gives the iconic portrait a surprisingly light, playful twist. The delicate pink background frames the artwork gently, making this version feel brighter, softer and more playful than the gold edition. On the reverse, gold-coloured lettering reads "Happy Birthday Mr. President", adding a charming reference to a legendary moment in pop culture. The mug holds 0.25 litres, measures 11 cm in width, 8 cm in depth and 9 cm in height, and weighs 240 g. Handmade in Germany from premium Meissen porcelain, it features the distinctive classicist handle characteristic of the MEISSEN Mug Collection. It is dishwasher safe, but not suitable for microwave use due to its decorative finish. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
A little glamour, softly interrupted by a wink
This Meissen mug is not the kind of piece that quietly disappears into the cupboard. It brings character to the breakfast table, home office or afternoon coffee break, while remaining wonderfully light in mood. Michael Moebius is known for his Bubblegum series, in which world-famous icons are reimagined with a realistic visual language and a playful contemporary twist. In Marilyn Pink, the result feels instantly familiar yet freshly told: less monument, more moment. The pink tone softens the glamour, the bubble adds humour, and fine Meissen porcelain keeps the whole composition refined. For coffee, tea or hot chocolate, it becomes a small artwork you can actually use.
When a historic manufactory gives icons a new voice
Founded in 1710, the State Porcelain Manufactory Meissen stands for exceptional porcelain quality, masterful craftsmanship and one of Europe's richest manufactory traditions. The famous blue Crossed Swords mark has symbolised authenticity and quality since 1722. Production begins with pure kaolin from Meissen's own mine near the town of Meissen, combined with feldspar and quartz to create the porcelain body known for its distinctive brightness, hardness and radiance. The collaboration between Michael Moebius and MEISSEN is named the "Legends blowing Bubbles Collection" and includes four MEISSEN mugs with Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn décors. It shows how alive tradition can feel when it gives contemporary art room to breathe. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
For tables, shelves and people with a taste for beautiful little twists
The Marilyn Pink Mug pairs beautifully with the Marilyn Gold edition, the Audrey designs and other pieces from the MEISSEN X Michael Moebius Collection. It also creates a fresh artistic accent alongside quieter Meissen series such as Cosmopolitan White, Cosmopolitan Blue Treasures, MEISSEN2GO or selected vases. As a gift for art lovers, a collector's piece or an everyday favourite, it brings together porcelain, pop culture and craftsmanship with the kind of lightness that makes good objects feel special. A mug for moments that do not need a grand stage. Coffee will do nicely.
