Bring the wisdom of the ancients to your morning brew.
Let’s be honest: 11 ounces of coffee is just a warmup. Serious astrophotographers know that true enlightenment—or at least the energy to survive a freezing 3:00 AM meridian flip—requires a proper 15-ounce vessel. The Bracken Observatory "Gilgamesh" Mug is the perfect companion for those long, dark nights at the scope.
This generous ceramic mug features our signature circular logo printed in vibrant full color on both sides, ensuring that whether you're right-handed, left-handed, or just too tired to know the difference, King Gilgamesh is always looking back at you.
Fuel Your Stargazing, Protect Our Planet
Stargazing requires clear skies, and that starts with a healthy planet. We believe in protecting the only spaceship we've got, which is why for every 15oz Bracken Observatory mug sold, we proudly donate $2.00 directly to Cool Earth to help protect rainforests and support indigenous communities. Fuel your late-night observing sessions and help us make a difference!
The Story Behind the Design
Who's the strange character peering through the telescope? That’s Gilgamesh, the legendary king of the ancient city-state of Uruk. Originally designed by renowned Irish artist Sarah Bracken for a book cover, this custom lithograph perfectly bridges the cradle of civilization with the cutting edge of modern astronomy. He’s been our watermark, our mascot, and now, your trusty co-pilot for late-night imaging sessions.

🔭 From the Desk of Paul Bracken:
"This is actually my absolute go-to mug these days. Having the logo visible on both sides was a non-negotiable for me during the design phase, and the print quality really delivered. Mine has survived the gauntlet of the dishwasher multiple times and is still holding up perfectly. Grab one for your desk, and I guarantee it’ll quickly become your favorite, too."
