A little French exasperation for your morning coffee. This ceramic mug features a deep blue-hued “Sapristi!” an old-fashioned exclamation meaning good heavens, by Jove or, on particularly trying days, drat.
The phrase is mentioned in S. Baring-Gould’s ghost story “Jean Bouchon,” where a startled café waiter cries “Sapristi!” after learning that a long-dead colleague has returned to pocket yet another customer’s tip. Equal parts literary, ghostly and mildly scandalized, it makes a delightfully understated addition to the Halloween cupboard.

This product is made especially for you as soon as you place an order, which is why it takes us a bit longer to deliver it to you. Making products on demand instead of in bulk helps reduce overproduction, so thank you for making thoughtful purchasing decisions!
