Ariel Little Mermaid Green Teacup

This charming Open Edition pin features Ariel, the beloved mermaid protagonist from Disney's 1989 animated classic The Little Mermaid, reimagined as a thematic tumbler or tea cup. The design utilizes Ariel's iconic color palette, featuring a vibrant green base accented by a purple seashell emblem reminiscent of her signature seashell bra. A whimsical mermaid tail wraps around the base of the cup, while a red lid and straw finish the modern aesthetic. This pin is part of the popular Hidden Mickey Princess Tea Cups series, which was released in 2009. These Hidden Mickey pins were originally available exclusively through Cast Member trading at Disney parks, making them a staple for collectors who enjoy the thrill of the hunt. Because this is an Open Edition pin, it was produced for a continuous period, yet the character popularity of Ariel ensures it remains a sought-after piece for fans of the film. The series is celebrated for its creative anthropomorphic takes on classic Disney Princesses, blending their iconic traits into everyday drinkware items. Collectors value this pin for its distinct, modern design language and its association with one of Disney’s most cherished Renaissance-era characters. It serves as a perfect entry-level piece for those starting an Ariel-themed collection or a comprehensive set of the Hidden Mickey Princess Tea Cups.
