What makes a two-tone mug different

Outside it is a glossy white ceramic mug, so the print reproduces as accurately as it does on any white mug. Inside, the glaze and the handle carry a colour. You notice it when the mug is lifted and again with every sip, which is why these read as a considered object rather than a plain printed mug.

Choosing the accent colour

The accent works hardest when it repeats a colour already in the design. Black suits gothic line art and typographic humour; pink suits florals and anything soft; blue suits coastal and ocean themes; green suits botanicals and mushrooms. Designs with many competing colours are usually better on a plain white body, where nothing has to fight the interior.

Sizes and care

Available in 11 oz and 15 oz, in a range of accent colours per design. Compare the sizes in our coffee mug sizes guide. Both are dishwasher and microwave safe, with the design sublimated into the glaze so it does not peel at the handle. Looking for the artwork first? Try animal mugs or funny mugs.
