Handmade White and Blue Stripe Stoneware Mug

You will find yourself reaching for this handmade stoneware mug every morning, drawn to its soft off-white satin glaze and hand-painted blue-grey stripes. Each mug is shaped, glazed, and painted by hand in the Habulous Dartmoor studio, giving every piece its own subtle character and the quiet marks of a truly handmade process.

Generously sized for your morning coffee or afternoon tea, it has a comforting weight and a naturally shaped handle that sits beautifully in your hand. Made for everyday use, not saved for best, it is the kind of mug that brings a soft, understated warmth to your table and quietly becomes part of your daily routine.

Handmade in the UK Each stoneware mug is wheel-thrown by hand in the Dartmoor studio using traditional pottery techniques. Made in small batches from flecked stoneware clay, every mug is glazed and painted by hand, meaning no two pieces are ever exactly alike. It is a celebration of slow craft, thoughtful design, and the beauty of everyday ceramics.

Thoughtfully Designed Made from durable stoneware clay, this mug is designed to be enjoyed every day. The satin white glaze has a soft off-white finish, while the hand-painted blue-grey stripes add gentle movement and character. The comfortable handle and generous 350ml capacity make it just as suited to your first coffee of the day as an afternoon cup of tea.

Care and Packaging Your mug will arrive carefully packaged using recyclable or reusable materials, ready for gifting or everyday use. As each mug is wheel-thrown and hand-painted by hand, slight variations in shape, stripe placement, and colour depth are a natural part of the making process and reflect the individuality of each piece. To keep your handmade stoneware looking its best, we recommend washing it gently with warm, soapy water and avoiding sudden changes in temperature.
