DESCRIPTION

Ceramic Travel Mug

This is a zero-emission product!

We fire these pieces in electric kilns using solar panels powered by the sun to produce Australia’s first commercially available solar-fired ceramic travel cups. Say hello to your new climate-friendly accessory!

These reusable stoneware coffee cups are perfect for drinks on the go. Or remove the lid and add a little colour into your home collection.

The Desert Sand ceramic travel mug has been designed in collaboration with Spell & The Gypsy Collective of Byron Bay.

Just like the Great Sandy regions of the vast Australian interior and coastlines, this beautiful light orange ceramic cup takes us on a spiritual journey through its natural pigments and Earthy hues.

Imagine the dust settling, as the sun begins to set when the wild Australian landscape comes alive and our native colours thrive. This ceramic travel cup is a blend of soft ochre and peachy tones that are bound together by a dreamy, creamy haze of white over a white base.

White 100% silicone lid.

All ceramic travel mugs are handmade and one-of-a-kind. You will receive a cup similar to the cups pictured but there are no two the same. Variations in size, colour, and markings are what makes them unique!

Pottery For The Planet Cups are made of ceramic and must be handled with care. Ceramic will crack if knocked or dropped.

Specifications are approximate because although we do our best to keep things uniform being handmade you can expect variations in size, weight, shape, texture, pattern, and volume. Pottery For The Planet Cups are designed to fit into most cup holders in cars and prams.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size should I choose for my coffee order?

A rough guide: the 4oz Piccolo suits an espresso or piccolo, the 6oz works for a small flat white or strong coffee, the 8oz covers most standard cafe orders and is the most popular size, and the 12oz suits larger drinks, teas, or anyone who likes more in their cup. If you are unsure, the 8oz is the safe default. The 16oz Iced Coffee Cup is a separate product designed specifically for cold drinks.

Will my cup look exactly like the photo?

No two cups are identical. Each one is handmade and glazed individually, so the glaze colour, depth, and markings on your cup will be similar to the photo but will have its own natural variation. That variation is what makes every piece one of a kind and worth keeping. Specifications are also approximate for the same reason.

Does the cup come with a lid?

Yes, every Travel Cup comes with a 100% silicone lid included. Lids come in cream, black or white depending on the glaze. If you want a lid in a different colour, or a spare, replacement lids are available separately in the Accessories collection in three sizes - Small (4oz), Regular (6oz/8oz/12oz), and Large (16oz).

Will it fit in my car or pram cup holder?

Yes, Travel Cups are designed to fit most standard car and pram cup holders. Because every cup is handmade, there is slight variation in width between pieces, so specifications are approximate. If your cup holder is on the narrower side, the 4oz and 6oz sizes are the most likely to fit comfortably.

How do I care for my cup?

Our ceramic Travel Cups are dishwasher safe, though hand washing will help preserve the glaze and extend the life of the piece over time. Hand wash the silicone lid to keep it in good shape. Ceramic is durable but will crack if knocked or dropped, so handle it with a bit of care. Avoid sudden temperature changes like pouring boiling water into a cold cup straight from the fridge.
