Throughout history, masks made of pig bladders with crow heads have been seen during major pandemics. Today you can personalise the mask you buy with the muzzle of a pet or why not a tiger. During periods of plague, masks with the shape of a bird's beak were made for doctors with medicinal plants that were supposed to kill the various infections attributed to the epidemics. The models of the masks have never ceased to be revisited in an attempt to improve them. Archive photos show that the miners wore masks to protect them from all the flying and suspended dust during their activities at the bottom of the mine. Around 1850, medical masks appeared. Charles Urbain Bricogne, a French engineer, developed a mask to protect against dust, dust which was dangerous to the health of railway employees. At the dawn of the 20th century, the occupants of the tanks were obliged to put on a mask to protect themselves from the paint and iron debris coming from the walls due to the consequences of shell and bullet impacts. Today, multiple means of protection are used: visor or face screen. These are systems already in use in various sectors of activity whose common aim is to protect against all types of projections. Visor used in metallurgy, welding, etc. Masks to be personalised with the muzzle of an animal, dog, cat, tiger, an indispensable gift for those who care about the health of their loved ones.

In Europe, just a few months ago, wearing masks in Japan seemed very exotic. At the beginning of the pandemic in Europe, when masks were scarce and were available at prohibitive prices, many of the citizens, generally the most agile with their hands, made protective masks in a very artisanal way. They were often made with whatever they could get their hands on, without really being sure they had the right technique, nor the right fabric, and the motifs of the masks were of little importance. Sometimes fanciful or even plain without a soul. Today, the price of masks has fallen sharply. With the mask we offer you at a democratic price you will have an authentic protective mask and a design that brings out your personality, your identity, thanks to a graphic like a tribal tattoo. Behind its abstract designs and complex lines the tribal motifs were created thousands of years ago. They evoke the elements of nature (earth, fire, water, air, ocean, sun), animals (turtles, lizards, shark teeth), each with its own symbolism. Power, eternity, purity, immunity, fertility, the values carried by these tattoos are numerous. Ancestral and religious practice at the beginning to become today a fashion phenomenon through the subjects of the tattoos. Ideal gift to emphasize or bring out the ornaments, the motives which enthuse you..

You would like to offer a magic mug to a loved one and you would like to explain how it works. Here are some explanations on the action of the thermo-reactive paints that cover the magic mug. This action is similar to that of glasses that are automatically tinted (photochromic glasses). The transformation is due to the tinting activator. The silver halide molecules in the glasses release metallic silver when exposed to the sun's ultraviolet rays. This component is black and the lenses darken. When UV exposure is reduced or stopped, the silver is absorbed by the halide ions and the lenses return to their original state. UV radiation therefore changes the structure of certain molecules and affects their optical properties as well as those of the lens itself. A similar phenomenon can be observed with heat-reactive paints: a molecule used in the paint changes its shape when heated to a certain temperature. The same effect can be seen in mugs. So, thanks to this thermo-reactive coating, our magic mugs to which a boiling drink is added can make your text, your image or your photo appear. This happens very quickly. However, in order for the mug to fulfil its magical function, it must first be well made and then it is essential to take care of your magic mug, A cool magic mug with a label to personalise is an original magic mug idea for any occasion.

Human progress has been made through many small advances in habits and ways of doing things. One of these changes is undoubtedly the way of eating and the utensils and objects used, as we mentioned earlier in our articles on other mugs. Kitchen items have evolved over time according to cultures and needs. The mug is one of those famous everyday objects that have a history and whose usefulness is no longer in question. The mug is now tending to be rivalled by the mug, which is a much more fashionable large cup used without a saucer. A mug is a large cylindrical container with a handle, without a saucer, that resembles a cup and is used in Europe and Quebec for drinking or measuring, and in North America only for drinking hot liquids. A mug can also be made of clay, glass or enamelled metal. Its use varies from region to region and it can be decorated and personalised as desired. Mugs can be of different colours, simple, fluorescent, flashy, etc. with sometimes a decoration or a colour inside according to your choice among our varied panels.
