{"product_id":"samay-dimpled-mug-natural","title":"Samay Dimpled Mug - Natural","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Samay is a wide, low earthenware mug, 8.5cm tall and 11.5cm across including the handle, holding 500ml. The body is broadest at the shoulder and draws in towards the foot, and a large round loop handle stands off one side, big enough to take more than one finger. From just under the rim down to a plain band at the foot, the whole surface is pressed into a dense field of rounded dimples. The glaze breaks over them: pale oatmeal on the raised faces, amber and rust-brown pooled in the hollows and the lines between, with a grey-blue band running round the rim and out along the handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e500ml is double a teacup and more than most mugs hold, which is what the shape is for: it is wide rather than tall, so the drink cools faster than it would in a straight-sided beaker and there is more of it to begin with. At 8.5cm it goes under a coffee machine spout and sits low enough on a tray not to topple. The dimples give the hand something to hold that a smooth glaze does not, which matters on a mug this wide when it is full. It is dishwasher safe, microwave safe and food safe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach mug is shaped in a textured mould, which is where the dimples come from, and the glaze is applied by hand and allowed to move during firing. That is why the rust and amber gather in some patches and barely show in others, and why the grey of the rim runs to a different depth on every mug. The Samay mug is also made in a darker plum colourway.\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\u003e8.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCapacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e500ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEarthenware\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNatural\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\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\u003e0.329kg\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 it hold?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e500ml.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big is it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e8.5cm tall and 11.5cm across including the handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it go in the dishwasher or the microwave?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes to both, and it is food safe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the glaze the same on every mug?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. It is applied by hand and moves during firing, so the amber and rust gather differently on each one and the rim band runs to a different depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat other colours are there?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Samay mug is also made in plum.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I look after it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWash it after every use so it does not stain, using a mild detergent, and do not leave it to soak.
