The Portal of Marine Janus | Cuepoxy Collectible Mug #27

In Roman tradition, Janus is the god of doors, beginnings and transitions, often depicted looking in two directions. Cuepoxy’s The Portal of Marine Janus places that idea at the meeting of shore and sea. The marine portal is an artistic interpretation, not an ancient Roman sanctuary.

Two oyster shells face one another across a coral-like arch. Dark pearls rest inside them, blue crystals mark the center and a green resin base suggests shallow water. On collectible mug #27, this handcrafted artwork offers a small reminder that every journey begins at a threshold.

Artist’s Note

I built the facing shells and arch as a single opening, with the crystals at the point between leaving and returning. The artwork featured on this mug is a real, handcrafted Cuepoxy piece in my private collection; the physical original is not included with the mug. This is collectible mug #27 of 30, created so the image can be enjoyed beyond the private collection. The artwork may also be presented in other formats, including wall art.
