Know before you buy
The stoneware material provides a natural thickness that helps insulate the mug. However, if you are filling it with boiling water, we recommend letting it sit for a moment or holding it by the top rim until the temperature is comfortable for your hands.
No, this piece is not dishwasher or microwave safe. To preserve the integrity of the hand-thrown stoneware, we recommend hand washing it gently with mild soap.
The tapered design is intended to fit naturally in your palms, providing a secure grip despite the lack of a handle. It also helps concentrate the aroma of your coffee or tea as you drink.
Because each mug is artisanally hand-thrown, you may notice slight variations in the glaze application and texture. These unique characteristics are a hallmark of the handmade process and ensure that no two pieces are exactly identical.
Yes, it is crafted from durable stoneware specifically designed for everyday use. While it requires hand washing, it is robust enough to serve as your go-to mug for morning coffee or afternoon tea.
