{"product_id":"maxima-stoneware-mug-510ml-blue","title":"Maxima Stoneware Mug 510ml - Blue","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis hand-painted stoneware mug holds 510ml, which makes it a large mug: room for a big tea or a milky coffee rather than a short espresso. It stands 11.5cm tall and 9.5cm across, with a rounded, bellied body that narrows a little towards the top before opening out at the rim. A deep border of blue leaf shapes and dots circles the top, and beneath it lemons hang from leafy blue sprigs, painted with loose, confident brushstrokes. The handle is decorated too, edged in blue and spotted with blue dots, and its generous loop takes a comfortable grip. At 0.41KG it has the solid weight you expect from good stoneware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a mug for every day: the first tea of the morning at the kitchen table, a long coffee at a desk, or hot chocolate on a cold evening. The painted lemons bring a cheerful note to a breakfast table, and the blue decoration sits happily with plain tableware as well as with other patterned pottery. We think it looks just as good on an open kitchen shelf or a dresser as it does in use, so it earns its place between drinks. It also makes a thoughtful gift for a keen tea drinker, a new home or anyone who enjoys hand-painted pottery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe decoration is painted by hand over a solid glaze, so the brushwork varies a little from mug to mug and yours will carry its own small differences. Stoneware is dense and hard-wearing, and it holds heat well. Looking after it is easy: it goes in the dishwasher, it can be warmed in the microwave and it can go in the oven. For a relaxed kitchen look, keep it on an open shelf or hang it from a hook with the handle turned outwards, so the painted dots on the handle show as clearly as the lemons.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100% Stoneware\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlue\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHandpainted decorations on solid glaze\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCapacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e510ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDishwasher safe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMicrowave safe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOven safe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFood safe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.41KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the mug hold?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt holds 510ml, which makes it a large mug, roomy enough for a big tea, a milky coffee or a hot chocolate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it go in the dishwasher and the microwave?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
