The 'onliu' coffee cup and saucer might not look like a very different way to enjoy a morning cup of java, but the reality is that it has a few tricks up its sleeve. The 'onliu' features a hollow portion in the cup that allows it to sit comfortably on a pedestal on the saucer. This allows it to be spill-proof and be carried around without worrying that the cup will wobble and create a mess.
Currently being funded on Kickstarter, the 'onliu' coffee cup and saucer features a hidden secret that is revealed to the drinker after the cup is half empty. A ceramic heart accessory is built-in to the cup to make it a cup reminder to a loved one of your feelings.
