Discovery Series Ornament – Universal Epic Universe

You may remember the standard-sized mug celebrating the opening of Universal’s new theme park. In addition to that, there’s now a charming new release: the Discovery Series Ornament – Universal Epic Universe, a smaller yet equally captivating piece in the collection. It is worth mentioning that the box cover is custom for this ornament, with the “Epic Universe” logo.

From the design of the ornament:

– The entrance to Universal Epic Universe welcomes guests with an awe-inspiring portal structure designed like a celestial archway, surrounded by glowing planets, swirling galaxies, and towering spires.… Read more

Discovery Series Ornament – Oahu

From what I’ve observed, Starbucks has released a wide array of mugs and ornaments dedicated to Hawaii, with the Discovery Series Ornament – Oahu being one of them.

Oʻahu, often referred to as “The Gathering Place,” holds a central role in the history of Hawaiʻi. As the third largest and most populous of the Hawaiian Islands, it has long been a cultural and political hub. Ancient Hawaiian chiefs ruled over the island for centuries before it became the site of pivotal moments in the archipelago’s modern history.… Read more

Been There – Melbourne

Been There – Melbourne is a mug for a city with a rich and dynamic history, founded in 1835 by free settlers from Tasmania on the traditional lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation. Melbourne quickly grew from a small settlement into a thriving metropolis, spurred by the Victorian gold rush of the 1850s, which brought immense wealth and a wave of migration. By the late 19th century, it was one of the largest and wealthiest cities in the British Empire, known for its grand architecture, cultural institutions, and booming trade.… Read more

Discovery Series Ornament – Saskatchewan

How about a tiny Discovery Series Ornament – Saskatchewan for a Canadian province whose history is deeply rooted in the land and the people who have shaped it for thousands of years. Long before it became a province in 1905, Indigenous nations such as the Cree, Dene, Saulteaux, and Nakota thrived across the plains, developing rich cultures and deep connections to the land. The arrival of European fur traders in the 18th century brought dramatic change, as Saskatchewan became a key part of the fur trade network.… Read more

Been There Ornament – Beijing

Been There Ornament – Beijing is a mini mug for a city that is more than China’s capital – it’s a city layered with centuries of memory, culture, and quiet surprises. Beyond the towering government buildings and gleaming business districts lies a network of ancient hutongs: narrow alleys lined with grey brick homes, fluttering laundry, and the smell of breakfast steaming in bamboo baskets.

Each alley tells a different story – of revolution and poetry, of neighbors who’ve shared the same courtyard for generations.… Read more

Discovery Series – Miami

Discovery Series – Miami is coming together with the ornament that we’ve seen earlier this week. Here is how the big mug is different from its mini sibling:

– The dominoes on the front of the ornament are likely a nod to Máximo Gómez Park, more affectionately known as Domino Park, a vibrant community hub in Miami’s Little Havana neighborhood. Located along Calle Ocho (SW 8th Street), this small park is famous for its daily gatherings of local Cuban elders who play intense games of dominoes and chess, often drawing curious onlookers and tourists.… Read more

You Are Here – Košice

You Are Here – Košice is a mug for a city with deep historical roots, a cultural and economic hub of eastern Slovakia. First mentioned in records from 1230, Košice quickly grew into a prominent medieval town, becoming the first European city to be granted its own coat of arms in 1369. Strategically located along important trade routes, it flourished as a center of commerce, craftsmanship, and governance within the Kingdom of Hungary. Over the centuries, Košice experienced periods of prosperity and hardship under various empires, including Ottoman incursions and Habsburg rule.… Read more
