Description
This is a set of four stoneware mugs, each holding 380ml and standing 9cm tall and 8.5cm across. That capacity makes them true mugs rather than cups, with room for a long tea with milk, a large milky coffee or a hot chocolate. Each one is glazed in blue, with fine lighter stripes running around the body and a deeper band at the base. The glaze falls a little differently on every mug, so no two of the four look quite alike. The walls rise in shallow ridges and a generous loop handle sits to one side.
They are made for everyday drinking: a first coffee at the kitchen counter, tea at the table on a slow weekend, a warm drink at a desk through a long afternoon. Stoneware is dense and holds heat well, so a mug like this is pleasant to cradle in both hands on a cold morning. Because the glaze varies, the four suit a household where everyone likes a mug of their own. Between uses they look good on an open shelf or a dresser, where the blue stripes bring a little colour to the kitchen.
The mugs are made entirely of stoneware, and the maker lists them for the dishwasher, the microwave and the oven. They go into the dishwasher after breakfast, into the microwave to reheat a drink gone cold and into the oven where a recipe needs it. The glaze carries on over the rim and inside, giving a glossy interior. For a calm table, set them out with plain linen and wooden boards and let the blue stripes do the work. On a shelf, turn the handles the same way so the bands line up from mug to mug.

Frequently Asked
How much does each mug hold?
Each mug holds 380ml, a generous size for a long tea with milk, a large milky coffee or a hot chocolate.
Can the mugs go in the dishwasher and microwave?
Yes. The maker lists them for the dishwasher and the microwave, and for the oven as well, so they suit everyday use.
What is the material of the mugs?
They are 100% stoneware, a dense ceramic that holds heat well, finished in a blue striped glaze that also covers the inside.
How big is each mug?
Each one is 8.5cm across and 9cm tall, with a generous loop handle, so it sits comfortably in one hand or cradled in both.
Are all four mugs identical?
No. All four share the same shape, size and blue striped glaze, but the glaze falls a little differently on each, so no two look quite alike.
