Sláinte Bheag
A handbuilt handle-less tea cup/small tumbler with hand painted decoration.
The Romans believed that imagery of flying phalluses, aside from being hilarious, brought good luck and protected people from ill-health.
“The sexual energy of the phallus was tied directly to its power in reproduction,” according to classicist Anthony Philip Corbeill. The fertile power of a phallus, it was thought, would keep them safe. “
