I have been asked to produce mugs shaped like this image.

There is no way these would fit in a mug press so has anyone any ideas.

I realise I would have to perhaps sublimation coat the mugs and then find a way to hold the image in place and maybe bake in an oven.

Suggestions would be appreciated.

Possibly water slide decal? Check out Mugs Galore.

Thanks guys, I doubt it would work out feasible as this is more of an european product than a uk product and the purchaser currently only wants a small number to start. I wonder if even getting the mugs in the UK is possible - not a shape or design I have seen before.

I once met someone with a print shop in (http://www.saxoprint.co.uk) France on an international fair and he was selling those mugs too and I've often seen those during our holidays spent in France.
Unfortunately I forgot the guy's name... Was an Englishman married to a French woman, they lived in Bordeaux.
Maybe you should look out for a French supplier, if you're lucky they speak English :biggrin:
