{"product_id":"paula-stoneware-cups-275ml-set-of-4-multi","title":"Paula Stoneware Cups 275ml Set of 4 - Multi","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003ePaula is a set of four stoneware cups, each holding 275ml: a full serving of tea or coffee rather than a small espresso measure. They are 9cm across and 8cm tall, with a rounded, almost globe-like body that sits snugly in two cupped hands and a small round loop handle. The multicoloured reactive glaze is laid on a slant in three bands, a smooth band at the rim, a speckled and textured band through the middle and a smooth glaze over the base that carries on over the handle. The speckled middle band is the part people tend to notice first, with a mottled, almost mineral look that catches the light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFour matching cups suit a small household's everyday breakfast table or a weekend pot of coffee shared among friends. The 275ml size takes a generous tea, a milky coffee or a hot chocolate on a cold evening, and stoneware holds heat well, which is welcome on a slow morning. Because the glaze does so much of the work, the cups look at home on an open kitchen shelf between uses, and a set of four makes a thoughtful housewarming gift for someone setting up a first kitchen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach cup is made entirely of stoneware and finished in a reactive glaze. Reactive glazes move and pool as they fire, so the bands and speckles fall a little differently from one piece to the next, and we see that variation as part of the charm. Care is simple: the cups go in the dishwasher and the microwave, and the maker rates them oven safe as well. For the table, pair them with plain plates in a single soft tone and let the cups bring the colour, or hang them from hooks under a shelf so the glaze stays on show every day.\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\u003e8cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSold as\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSet of 4\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\u003eMulti\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eReactive glaze\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCapacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e275ml\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\u003e1.04KG\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 each cup hold?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach cup holds 275ml, which is a full serving of tea or coffee, larger than an espresso cup and close to an everyday mug.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the cups go in the dishwasher and microwave?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
