Discovery Series Star Wars Ornament – Geonosis

And last but not least in the trio is the Discovery Series Star Wars Ornament – Geonosis. Now that I think about it, we have four Star Wars Discovery mugs, but only three ornaments. For some reason, Starbucks never released an ornament for the Hoth mug. Is that something we can still expect in the future? I really hope so.

Geonosis holds a significant place in the Star Wars universe as the spark that ignited the Clone Wars. Introduced in Episode II: Attack of the Clones, this desert-like planet was the site of pivotal events involving major characters, including Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Jango Fett, among others.… Read more

Discovery Series Star Wars Ornament – Kashyyyk

This is the Discovery Series Star Wars Ornament – Kashyyyk that resembles the large mug but has fewer characters depicted in the design.

Kashyyyk, the home planet of the Wookiees, plays an important part in Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith. During the Clone Wars, it becomes one of the battlegrounds between the Republic and the Separatists. Jedi Master Yoda is sent there to help lead the defence alongside the Wookiees, including Chewbacca.

The most important moment on Kashyyyk happens when Order 66 is given—this is the order that turns the clone troopers against the Jedi.… Read more

Discovery Series Star Wars Ornament – Tatooine

As I mentioned earlier, the large Star Wars mugs are accompanied by a set of ornaments. Similar to the other mini mugs in this series, the design of the Discovery Series Star Wars Ornament – Tatooine features fewer elements compared to the larger mugs. These new ornaments come in a set of three — Tatooine, Kashyyyk, and Geonosis—and cannot be purchased separately. What I particularly like is that the circle on the front of each ornament is a custom color that matches the color of the inside of the mini mug.… Read more

You Are Here Ornament – Warsaw

Just when I thought I was done with my YAH ornaments collection, a friend sent me a picture of a mini mug I didn’t recognize. It took me a second to realize – it’s a brand-new release! I even had to check the calendar to make sure it’s 2025 out there!
As you can expect, You Are Here Ornament – Warsaw is a complete copy of the bigger mug that was released back in 2018. This is a common practice for this collection.… Read more

Been There Ornament – Wuxi

Been There Ornament – Wuxi accompanies the bigger mug that we’ve reviewed today, see this post. Like all Been There ornaments from China, it comes as a set of two, paired with the country ornament. It’s a bit inconvenient if you’re trying to collect all the cities, but that’s just how it is.

The ornament showcases most of the landmarks featured in the full-size mug design, but I’d like to mention these three additional symbols:

– The A Fu clay figurines, depicting a boy and a girl, are a popular form of Huishan clay figurines from Wuxi, symbolizing good fortune and happiness.… Read more

You Are Here Ornament – Baku

After months of waiting, I finally got my hands on the new Starbucks You Are Here Ornament – Baku. This latest release could very well be the final addition to the beloved series, making it even more special for collectors.

I very much like the design of this new ornament. It uses a beautiful mix of light blue, pink, and green colors that feel both fresh and nostalgic. The ornament is a miniature replica of the full-sized Baku mug I reviewed previously, keeping the same iconic imagery that defines the city:

– The Fire Temple, or Ateshgah, stands proudly on the outskirts, capturing Baku’s ancient connection to fire worship.… Read more

Discovery Series Ornament – The Florida Keys

It seems that, along with the mug, Starbucks has also released the Discovery Series Ornament – The Florida Keys!

Ornaments traditionally feature minimal symbolism, and the Florida Keys mini mug is no exception, focusing on the Florida Reef Tract, which is the only living coral reef in the continental United States. Spanning over 200 miles from Key Biscayne to the Dry Tortugas, this vibrant underwater ecosystem is home to an incredible array of marine life. The reef supports numerous species of corals, colorful fish, and various invertebrates, making it an essential habitat for biodiversity.… Read more

Discovery Series Ornament – Washington

Discovery Series Ornament – Washington is a brand new release from the Evergreen State. Washington State, located in the Pacific Northwest, is known for its rich history and diverse landscape. Named after George Washington, it became the 42nd state of the U.S. in 1889. The region was originally inhabited by Native American tribes, including the Coast Salish, before European explorers arrived in the late 18th century. The area thrived during the logging and mining booms of the 19th century and later became a hub for technology and innovation, with companies like Microsoft and Amazon calling it home.… Read more

Discovery Series Ornament – New York

Here comes Discovery Series Ornament – New York in addition to the big mug from The Empire State. These are the symbols of the state as seen in the design of this ornament:

Fishing in New York offers a mix of freshwater and saltwater opportunities, from casting for trout in the Adirondacks to reeling in striped bass off Long Island. The state’s lakes, rivers, and coastal waters provide year-round options for anglers of all skill levels. With diverse fish species and scenic locations, it’s a prime destination for both casual and serious fishermen.… Read more

Discovery Series Ornament – South Dakota

Discovery Series Ornament – South Dakota was spotted in stores recently!

South Dakota, located in the Midwestern region of the United States, has a rich history dating back to Native American tribes like the Lakota Sioux, who inhabited the area for thousands of years before European exploration. The territory was part of the Louisiana Purchase in 1803 and became the 40th state on November 2, 1889, formed from the western half of the Dakota Territory during a period of rapid western expansion and settlement.… Read more
