"I tend to make things I like, things I’d like to have around me," says ceramist JoAnn Stratakos. Once the concept is in place, she uses her knowledge and expertise to guide each piece. In her Pocono Mountain studio, she creates one-of-a-kind glazes, giving her designs subtle variations and unique characteristics. The color and shapes are designed to complement, not compete. It's the impressive shapes and functionality that makes JoAnn's items truly special.

I bought a second one!

I loved this mug from the first time I saw it, put off buying because of the price, but the more I looked at it the more I realized it was well worth the cost. It was absolutely my favorite mug, the only one I used. Alas, after about two years it was broken in a freak accident. I was so distraught I wouldn't let anyone help me pick up the pieces. And I immediately ordered another one! This is a good sized mug, the tulip shape is wonderful, the houses perfect. And the message.. I wholeheartedly recommend this mug!


Perfect gift for far away friend

My best friend ever since grade school (we are in our 70's now) lives in Michigan. I live in Georgia. we talk each month and text, but its not the same as talking in person. . I sure do wish she lived next door. There were some issues with shipping, which was not the fault of Uncommon goods. The customer service fellow was very helpful and when it seemed the package had been lost or misdirected, he sent a replacement overnight. In the end, she did receive both, and the return process with free shipping label was seamless. Thank you, uncommon goods, for helping me make my friend's day special.


This mug far exceeded my expectations!

I purchased this mug as a gift for my friend who used to be my neighbor . She now lives 400plus miles away. We talk on the phone daily and I really miss the fact that she's not my neighbor any more. This mug said it all as we have been friends for more than 40 years. She was delighted when she received it and the joy in her voice said it all. Thank you for such a wonderful custom product.


Great Gift

I wanted to buy this cup for my best friend and finally was able to have it shipped. It was loved a lot by my coffee drinking friend. Perfect!


Perfect gift for your friends!

I'm an 80 yr old wife of a career military officer and have spent many years living in different locations. There are many women I have been close friends with but because of our husbands careers we only spent a few years in the same location due to one of us relocating. The mug is a perfect gift for my old friends who I wish still lived next door.


perfect gift

Very nice and high quality. I bought it as a birthday gift for my sister and she loved it. I love that I can always find unique high quyality gifts at uncommon goods and I love shopping from small businesses and supporting artists. Shopping here lets me do that.


The perfect gift to give to your "Besties"

I bought several of these because I wanted to give these lovely mugs with the perfect message for friends who live far away and whom I do not get to see regularly. They are perfect for having a cup of coffee…over the phone…with them. And, it will remind them how special they are to me.


A sweet message for someone you miss

I sent this mug to a friend who had moved away. It was received very warmly, and was a gift that keeps us connected. It's very cute and whimsical, and the message is lovely.


Recipient Loved This Mug

It is really cute, I would purchase again.


Such a perfect message of friendship

I sent this as a gift to a friend across the country who unexpectedly lost her young adult son. She didn't want to deal with phone calls, it was just too hard on her. After receiving this, she was able to text a thanks and a short message. I like that she'll have this any time she needs a good thought without having to complicate a quick " hug on a mug."
