HotJo Travel Mug by Highwave
Designed c. 1980’s
No longer in production
The Raktajino mug is as ubiquitous to Deep Space Nine as Carsten Jorgensen’s Bistro “Picard Cup” cup was to The Next Generation. The original design featured a more angular shape and a forefinger indent. Highwave later modernized the design to make it more minimal. It’s rumored that those used in Deep Space Nine were actually knockoffs of Highwave’s mugs, which were never produced in purple. However, they appear identical, and both the older and modernized versions were used throughout Deep Space Nine, while only the earlier version appears once in Voyager, in the Quark’s Bar scene in “Caretaker.”
Used in:
