Tropico Diffusion egg cups



The French company Tropico Diffusion sells a wide range of products featuring famous characters and registered marks. And it looks like they love to use their licenses to create figural ceramic egg cups. Actually, they did produce at least one footed (non figural) egg cup a long time ago, but over the years they have been specialising in figural ones, with a recurrent tendency to explore the possibilities of having the famous character next to some object where the soft-boiled egg can rest. All in ceramic, yes.
