It's the place where the Portuguese cockerel once was created by an artisan. The colorful rooster is a symbol of Portugal’s popular culture and ancient clay handicrafts. The legend of the rooster inspired an artisan to create a rooster out of clay in Barcelos. The clay figurine was loved by many and spread throughout the country in different sizes and later in other materials like ceramics, woodwork, and metal. The colorful representation of the Barcelos Cockerel was adopted for many years as the symbol of Tourism in Portugal.

These mugs are an adorable gift option for Valentine's Day, Wedding/Engagement gifts! I love the way they shape and fit together and the print was spot on! I would order this again. The printing was clear and was as shown on the site. I was able to change the font to one I really liked.

The mugs are awesome the only drawback was the limited amount of letters in the names. I tried to figure out how to get more letters on but couldn't. Otherwise the mugs are perfect. The printing was great just the limited space described above.
