Element of Surprise Science Mug

Science has entered the tea break and brought a wonderfully groan-worthy joke with it. The Element of Surprise design turns chemistry wordplay into a colourful illustrated character, ready to create a positive reaction among teachers, students and anyone who enjoys their periodic table with added silliness.

This 11oz ceramic mug has room for coffee, tea, hot chocolate or the beverage currently powering an important experiment. Its playful science artwork adds personality to classroom desks, staff rooms, laboratories and home offices, while the joke offers a useful test of everybody else’s sense of humour.

It makes a fun gift for chemistry teachers, science students, laboratory colleagues and curious minds of all ages. Use it as a light-hearted classroom reward, add it to a collection or present it to the person most likely to explain the pun. Results may vary, but a dramatic groan is a perfectly acceptable reaction.
