Know before you buy
No, this set is not dishwasher, microwave, or freezer safe. Due to the artisanal nature of the reactive glaze and stoneware, we recommend hand washing to preserve the finish.
Because each piece is handcrafted and features a unique reactive glaze, there will be natural variations in color and pattern. This means your specific set will have its own distinct character, making no two items exactly alike.
The cup has a 7 oz. capacity, which is ideal for a standard serving of coffee, tea, or a flat white.
This specific product is not certified lead-free. Please consider this if you have specific requirements regarding the composition of your drinkware.
These cups are not designed to be stackable. We recommend storing them side-by-side or on a display rack to protect the glaze and edges.
