Description
Rayen is a set of four stoneware mugs, each holding 390ml, which is a generous size for a large tea, a milky coffee or a hot chocolate. Each mug is 10cm across and 8cm tall, with a round, full body that settles comfortably into cupped hands and a curved loop handle. The pink reactive glaze runs in streaks and speckles from the rim down to the foot, and because a reactive glaze moves as it fires, no two mugs in the set turn out quite the same.
These are mugs for everyday use: the first tea of the morning at the kitchen table, a coffee at the desk, a slow hot drink on a weekend afternoon. Four in the set suits a small household, a shared flat or a kitchen that needs a fresh start, and they make a thoughtful gift for someone moving into a new home. Stoneware is dense and holds heat well, so the full shape is pleasant to wrap both hands around on a cold evening. Between uses we think they are good-looking enough to live on an open shelf or a dresser rather than behind a cupboard door.
Each mug is 100% stoneware finished in a glossy reactive glaze, and care is refreshingly simple: they go in the dishwasher, the microwave and the oven, so a coffee that went cold is easily warmed again in the same mug. The streaks in the glaze vary from mug to mug, and that variation is part of the finish rather than a flaw, so a slightly mixed look on the table is exactly as intended. For styling, the pink sits beautifully against pale wood, linen and soft green, and the mugs look relaxed hung from hooks or lined up along a windowsill.

Frequently Asked
How much does each mug hold?
Each mug holds 390ml, a generous size for a large tea, a milky coffee or a hot chocolate on a cold evening.
Can the mugs go in the dishwasher and the microwave?
Yes. The maker states that these mugs can go in the dishwasher, the microwave and the oven, so everyday care is simple.
What material are the mugs?
They are 100% stoneware with a reactive glaze. Stoneware is dense and holds heat well, so a hot drink stays warm in the hand.
Will all four mugs look exactly the same?
Not quite. A reactive glaze moves as it fires, so the streaks and speckles fall a little differently on each mug, and that variation is part of the finish.
How big is each mug?
Each mug is 10cm across and 8cm tall, with a round, full body and a curved loop handle that sits comfortably in the hand.
How many mugs come in the set?
The set contains four mugs, all finished in the same pink reactive glaze and each holding 390ml.
