*Two flaws on this one: There’s a very small crack pictured at the base of the handle. It has been filled in with glaze, and is not at all a structural risk to the mug at all. It’s only mildly noticeable, but it’s there. There’s also some pin holing that formed on the inside. Some people worry this can hold bacteria if the mug isn’t washed well enough. However it’s not something I personally worry about. Whether you use it for drinks is entirely up to you. It could also be used as a small trinket pot, or succulent planter. Just make sure you fill the bottom with some pebbles to help with drainage since there’s no holes. I included pics of the pinholes, but it’s such a dark glaze, it’s hard to see. But you can see a couple.

Completely hand sculpted from an earthy red clay. Will hold your beverage with sass. Has a tiny friend on the handle to keep you company.

Fired to cone 5 in an electric kiln.

It is microwave safe. Just be cautious when removing from the microwave. I’ve found red clays to feel hotter to the touch after nuking. Possibly the higher iron content, but that’s just a hunch so don’t quote me on that.

Also dishwasher safe, but I always recommend hand washing.
