Know before you buy
The manufacturer has not specified microwave or dishwasher safety for this particular ceramic piece. Given the unique sandstone and porcelain stone composition, we recommend hand washing to preserve the integrity of the textured finish.
No. Because these mugs are crafted by artisans in traditional Japanese pottery villages using natural sandstone and porcelain stone, variations in texture, color, and finish are expected. Each piece possesses its own distinct character.
The mug features a full handle designed for a secure, comfortable grip. The exterior has a tactile, textured finish that provides a grounded, organic feel, contrasting with the smooth interior.
This is a standard ceramic mug and is not insulated. While it will hold heat well for a typical coffee or tea break, it does not feature vacuum-sealed technology to maintain temperature for extended periods.
This mug holds 10 ounces, which is a standard size for a typical cup of coffee or tea. It is well-suited for daily use without being overly bulky.
