When\nit is filled beyond a certain point, a siphoning effect causes the cup to\ndrain its entire contents through the base. The central column of the bowl is\npositioned directly over the stem of the cup and over a hole at the bottom of\nthe stem. A small open pipe runs from this hole almost to the top of the\ncentral column, where there is an open chamber. The chamber is connected by a\nsecond pipe to the bottom of the central column, where a hole in the column\nexposes the pipe to (the contents of) the bowl of the cup. When the cup is\nfilled, liquid rises through the second pipe up to the chamber at the top of\nthe central column, following Pascal's principle of communicating vessels. As\nlong as the level of the liquid does not rise beyond the level of the chamber,\nthe cup functions as normal. If the level rises further, however, the liquid\nspills through the chamber into the first pipe and out of the bottom. Gravity\nthen creates a siphon through the central column, causing the entire contents\nof the cup to be emptied through the hole at the bottom of the stem. Most\nmodern toilets operate on the same principle: when the water level in the bowl\nrises high enough, a siphon is created, emptying the bowl.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n \u003cul class=\"a\"\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eHeight: 4.3 inches (11 cm) Diameter: 4 inches (10 cm) Weight: 0.53 lbs (240 gr)\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eMaterial: Glazed Ceramic\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eHandmade in Greece\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eSAFE PACKING-We are giving extra care in packing our products so they can be delivered with safety\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003c\/ul\u003e","published_at":"2026-09-17T17:46:56+10:00","created_at":"2026-09-17T14:40:53+10:00","vendor":"BEAUTIFUL GREEK STATUES","type":"Espresso Cups","tags":["home_selected_Sep2026"],"price":20500,"price_min":20500,"price_max":20500,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44385172848820,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"B08QN9DQ54","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"BEAUTIFUL GREEK STATUES Pythagoras Cup of Justice Pythagorean Theorem Fair Mug Ancient Greece Black Cobalt Usable","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":20500,"weight":330,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/auspowers.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/B08QN9DQ54.jpg?v=1789620055","\/\/auspowers.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/419r9To1MoL.jpg?v=1789620055","\/\/auspowers.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/41iyBqaxGvL.jpg?v=1789620055","\/\/auspowers.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/41X3IZXHrnL.jpg?v=1789620055","\/\/auspowers.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/41KmDcpQ9jL.jpg?v=1789620055"],"featured_image":"\/\/auspowers.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/B08QN9DQ54.jpg?v=1789620055","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":33319230308532,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":500,"width":500,"src":"\/\/auspowers.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/B08QN9DQ54.jpg?v=1789620055"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":500,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/auspowers.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/B08QN9DQ54.jpg?v=1789620055","width":500},{"alt":null,"id":33319230341300,"position":2,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":500,"width":500,"src":"\/\/auspowers.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/419r9To1MoL.jpg?v=1789620055"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":500,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/auspowers.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/419r9To1MoL.jpg?v=1789620055","width":500},{"alt":null,"id":33319230374068,"position":3,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":500,"width":500,"src":"\/\/auspowers.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/41iyBqaxGvL.jpg?v=1789620055"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":500,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/auspowers.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/41iyBqaxGvL.jpg?v=1789620055","width":500},{"alt":null,"id":33319230406836,"position":4,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":500,"width":500,"src":"\/\/auspowers.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/41X3IZXHrnL.jpg?v=1789620055"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":500,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/auspowers.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/41X3IZXHrnL.jpg?v=1789620055","width":500},{"alt":null,"id":33319230439604,"position":5,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":500,"width":500,"src":"\/\/auspowers.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/41KmDcpQ9jL.jpg?v=1789620055"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":500,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/auspowers.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/41KmDcpQ9jL.jpg?v=1789620055","width":500}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch3\u003eBEAUTIFUL GREEK STATUES Pythagoras Cup of Justice Pythagorean Theorem Fair Mug Ancient Greece Black Cobalt Usable\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"b\"\u003ePythagoras Cup of Justice Pythagorean Theorem Fair Mug Ancient Greece Black\nCobalt Usable Height: 4.3 inches (11 cm) Diameter: 4 inches (10 cm) Weight:\n0.53 lbs (240 gr) A Pythagorean cup (also known as a Pythagoras cup, Greedy\nCup, Cup of Justice, Tantalus cup or i koupa tis dikaiosynis) is a practical\njoke device in a form of a drinking cup, credited to Pythagoras of Samos.
