Description
See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil. In Japanese, it is:
見ざる、聞かざる、言わざる mizaru, kikazaru, iwazaru. Don't see, don't hear, don't say.

The three monkeys are called "sanzaru." There is a hidden pun in each of the sayings. The -zaru ending is an old form of -nai which is the negative and means "not." In Japanese, "saru" is monkey (the "z" in zaru is a sound change after certain sounds).

Whether you're drinking your morning coffee, evening tea, or something in between – this mug's for you! It's sturdy and glossy with a vivid print that'll withstand the microwave and dishwasher.

• Ceramic
