Handmade stoneware Om mug

Perfect for adding a little bit of warmth to your daily routine, this unique Om mug is glazed only on the inside (with a soft white glaze) while the exterior remains unglazed leaving the natural variations of the dark grey stoneware exposed. Warm and tactile to the touch, the charming variations in colour and texture of the smoothed raw clay make every piece unique.

Crafted from high quality stoneware on my pottery wheel, this 300 ml/10 oz mug combines the durability needed to withstand daily use with the finesse of handmade design. With your comfort in mind, the base of the mug is buffed silky smooth to feel good in your hands and protect your tables. The soft curve of the mug tapering towards a narrower rim keeps your favourite drink hotter for longer, while the ergonomic handle makes the mug easy and comfortable to hold.

A thoughtful gift for yourself (or a loved one), this mug brings rustic cosiness and an invitation to slow down into your daily routine.

Features:

  • Om Symbol: Each mug is individually stamped with a tiny representation of the Om symbol. Sacred in many cultures and belief systems, Om is believed to bring peace, harmony, and balance, as well as protection from negative energies.

  • Handcrafted Charm: Each mug is individually shaped and glazed by hand, offering unique textures and patterns that celebrate the warmth and character of the natural materials used

  • Microwave and Dishwasher Safe: Designed for convenience, this mug is both microwave and dishwasher friendly.

  • My ceramics are individually handcrafted from high quality stoneware clays, locally sourced within Europe. The natural raw materials I use to create my glazes are also sourced from local and/or European suppliers.

    This means that although my clays and materials have to travel to get to me, they mainly go by land or sea, substantially lowering their carbon footprint.

    As far as possible, I choose suppliers who prioritise sustainability and human rights in their supply chains, particularly for raw materials with complex footprints (e.g. cobalt).

  • Vitrification:

    I fire all my stoneware ceramics to vitrification (depending on the type of clay, this means the pots go up to a top temperature of approx. 1285°C in the kiln during the glaze firing).

    At these temperatures, the raw materials in the clay melt and fuse together, forming almost glass-like ceramic with very low porosity and high durability.

    This ensures that your ceramics will be as strong as possible and should last for many years to come.

    Glazes:

    All my glazes are carefully developed in-house and made from scratch in my pottery studio. Through meticulous application of glaze chemistry, I am able to ensure that my glazes are durable and food-safe.

    They are all 100% free of lead and cadmium.

  • Ø: 8 cm
    Height: 8 cm

    Each mug holds approx. 300 ml/10 fl. oz.

  • Your mug is dishwasher safe. Hand-washing is, of course, more gentle but your mug is tough and durable - so please don't be afraid to pop it in the dishwasher with your other tableware.

    It is also microwave safe. The only thing to be aware of is thermal shock - taking a very hot mug and placing it directly on a very cold surface may cause either the mug or the surface to crack. However, your pot is strong and should be able to withstand most normal day-to-day use without any “babying”.
