Refill First, Small Talk Later – Coffee Dachshund

Refill first, small talk later. Clear priorities from a sleepy dachshund in a vintage engraving style: long body, short legs, cozy knitted sweater, one big plain black coffee cup held tight in both front paws, steam rising.
For coffee fans, office coworkers and anyone who tops up at the coffee machine before saying a word. A dry gift for a birthday, farewell, retirement, Christmas or the team gift exchange.

The office kitchen, 8:15 a.m.: someone wants to chat about the weekend. This dachshund barely lifts his gaze and grips his cup a little tighter. First the refill, then maybe some conversation. In his snug knitted sweater, with tired, half-closed eyes and a grumpy expression, he stands for everyone who sets clear priorities in the morning. Realistically drawn in a vintage engraving style, from the long back to the short legs. A design for caffeine professionals who know the right order of things.
