Any more clues as to it's shape or use?

Think: vessel for drinking hot chocolate or soup if rather thirsty. Opposite to demitasse.
Another: ( clue lies in the shading)
Second clue: everyone has loads of these. They tend to breed.

If it's for drinking hot chocolate or soup, even fast, it must be a cup of some sort, likely with a handle since the exterior of the cup would be hot to the touch.
