Benji: M8

Each mug is thrown by hand on the potter’s wheel from clay that I mix myself. I draw the images originally on paper in pen and ink and then scan and print them in glaze using a special decal printer.  The image transfer (decal) is then applied to a glaze fired piece and is re-fired for a third time causing the imagery to melt into the surface of the glaze. The image will not wear away through use and the mug is both food safe and dishwasher safe!

Each mug is tested with hot water before sale to guarantee quality. Please keep in mind that all ceramic pieces are at risk of thermal shock and cracking if their temperature changes too quickly. To keep your mug in good shape, avoid pouring in water at a rolling boil, do not microwave and ensure your mug is not extremely cold when adding hot liquids. Freshly made hot coffee in a room temperature mug is perfectly fine.
