It holds 12 ounces, it goes in the microwave, and the handle is a broad flat ribbon of clay curled into a generous loop instead of a thin stick on the side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNo two come out of the kiln quite the same. The glaze flows its own way on every firing, so the streaks, the drips and the darker patches on yours will sit in their own places rather than exactly where they sit in these photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA shape you notice from across the kitchen\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the mug that earns a place on the open shelf rather than at the back of the cupboard. Pick it up and you feel the shape. The body leans gently outward toward a wide foot, so it sits low and settled on a desk or a shelf, and the walls carry soft dents and faint rings that catch the light from a window.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe rim runs slightly out of round and dips where the handle joins it. Around the bottom the glaze darkens to a deep rust brown, and a few pale drips of ochre run down into it. Set down on the table, it reads as a piece of pottery as much as a cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA handle you can wrap your fingers through\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe handle is a ribbon: a wide, flat band of clay, pressed onto the wall just under the rim, curled out and down in a big rounded loop, and pressed back onto the body near the foot. The edges are softly rounded and the whole band is glazed and speckled like the rest of the mug.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the band is so broad, it takes your fingers flat against it rather than on a single edge. On a slow morning the squat body also fits comfortably between two hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSized for one proper cup\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwelve ounces is room for a full pour-over, a latte with its foam intact, a cappuccino or a frothy matcha, without the tall, narrow well of a diner mug. If the coffee goes cold while you are busy, it goes straight back in the microwave. No pouring it into another cup first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt looks at home beside an espresso machine, on an open shelf between a few books, or on the desk where the second cup always ends up. Wherever it sits, it is the mug you reach past the others for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eType: Coffee mug\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaterial: Stoneware\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinish: Matte ochre glaze with rust-brown streaks, a darker foot and a toasted rim\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGlaze: Lead-free\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandle: Wide flat ribbon loop\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCapacity: 12 fl oz (355 ml)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: About 3.5 x 4 in (8.9 x 10.2 cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVariation: Shape and glaze pattern vary slightly from mug to mug\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse: Microwave safe\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe recommend washing it by hand to keep the matte glaze at its best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Includes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e1x Stoneware Coffee Mug\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ridgewell Living","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68179967869224,"sku":null,"price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/9430\/5064\/files\/0812-00-lead-mug-close-latte.png?v=1794592014","url":"https:\/\/ridgewellliving.com\/products\/wabi-sabi-coffee-mug-12-oz-rustic-stoneware-cup-with-wide-ribbon-handle","provider":"Ridgewell Living","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
