Department 56 Christmas Krinkles Santa Cat Mug by Patience Brewster, 16 oz

This is a vintage Santa Cat mug in the Christmas Krinkles pattern designed by Patience Brewster for Department 56. The mug is decorated with a cute cat wearing a red Santa suit against a white background. The size is nice for a large cup of coffee or hot chocolate! The bottom is marked Department 56, Microwave and Dishwasher Safe, Not Oven Safe. I estimate production was around 2000 and this pattern has been discontinued. This is a large mug measuring approximately 4-3/4" tall, 3-1/2" in diameter at the top, and holds about 16 fluid ounces when filled to the rim. It's in fine condition, no chips, cracks, or crazing. If you love Department 56 holiday mugs, this cute Santa Cat displays very well and will make a fine addition to your home.
