Long-Tailed Red Lory, Trichoglossus borneus Coffee Mug
This striking illustration showcases the vibrant Red Lory, scientifically known as Eos bornea (historically also referred to as Trichoglossus borneus), a brilliantly coloured parrot native to the Indonesian islands, particularly the Moluccas. Known for its vivid crimson plumage accented by deep blue markings on the wings and tail, the Red Lory is a standout species among tropical birds. Its strong, curved beak and agile feet make it well adapted for feeding on nectar, pollen, fruits, and soft plant material—key components of its natural diet. These parrots are highly active, social, and often seen in pairs or small flocks within forested habitats.
The artwork reflects the refined style of Jacques Barraband, one of the most celebrated natural history illustrators of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. His work, including “Le Lori à franges bleues,” is part of a broader tradition of scientific illustration that combines artistic precision with biological accuracy. Barraband collaborated on significant ornithological publications, producing detailed depictions that aided early scientific understanding of exotic bird species. In this image, the Red Lory is perched gracefully on a textured branch, its posture and feather detail meticulously rendered to emphasise both realism and aesthetic beauty.
This image is a valuable reference for topics such as Red Lory characteristics, Eos bornea habitat, tropical parrots of Indonesia, and historical bird illustration. Collectors, ornithologists, and art enthusiasts alike appreciate such works for their educational and visual appeal. The fusion of taxonomy, artistry, and historical context makes “Le Lori à franges bleues” a timeless representation of the Red Lory’s natural elegance and ecological significance.

I like to buy and review my own work to ensure you get an outstanding product and I’m happy to give the Primary Colours Beach Football Mug 5 stars because it meets my expectations completely. Pleased with it I am. Zazzle mugs are well fabricated, microwave and dishwasher safe. And this yellow red and blue panoramic wraparound motif is sealed with a durable and sparkling Orca polished gloss glaze finish. It’ll never rub off! The size and energy of two jostling figures and a burly goal keeper fit the mug's circular shape well. There's momentum in the carousel effect as the two jostling figures repeat and move right around the mug and meet a burly goal keeper. Big sharp original images precisely drawn and delicately captured in blue and red with plenty of bright yellow! An ideal gift for anyone who plays ball! A fun gift for all beachball and football fans. A pair with the Retro Grey-Grain Beachball Player Mug. Available in two sizes and several styles including Black Ringer, Travelling, and Stern. Go have a peek!
