Description
Our Joseph mugs come as a set of four, made of stoneware and finished in a multicoloured glaze that runs down from the rim in long drips. The drips spill over a fluted lower body, where soft vertical ribs give the surface texture, and each mug flares gently outwards towards the rim. A generous looped handle leaves room for your fingers. Each one holds 260ml and measures 9cm across and 9.5cm tall, a comfortable everyday size that sits neatly in the hand.
At 260ml this is a proper mug rather than a small cup: right for a morning tea, a mid-afternoon coffee or a hot chocolate on a cold evening. Stoneware is dense and holds heat well, which suits a drink taken slowly at the kitchen table or beside you at a desk. With four in the set there are enough for a couple and their guests, or for a small household to share across the week. They make a thoughtful housewarming present for anyone setting up a first kitchen, and they look as much at home on an open shelf as on a breakfast tray.
The mugs are made entirely of stoneware, and the care is straightforward: they go in the dishwasher, the microwave and the oven, so reheating a cooled drink or clearing up after a busy weekend takes no extra thought. The oven rating also means a baked pudding in a mug is fair game. Because the glaze is multicoloured, the mugs sit happily beside plain plates and linen without clashing. For a practical finishing touch, hang them by their handles on a mug tree near the kettle: it frees up cupboard space and keeps those dripping glazes on show.
