Warmth, texture, and everyday comfort.

 Holding a mug with a dedicated pedestal base brings a wonderful feeling of structure to your hands. The deliberate, hand-trimmed foot gives the piece a reassuring weight, lifting the hot clay away from delicate furniture while holding the warmth right where it belongs—inside your drink. Hand-thrown from rich earthenware clay, this version is dressed in our Honey Caramel glaze, which pools naturally over the wheel-marks to create a glossy, golden-amber finish.

Inside, a clean, clear glaze provides a smooth contrast, making it easy to wipe clean while letting the deep tones of your coffee or tea stand out. Combined with the grounded pedestal silhouette, it turns a simple tea break into a satisfying daily ritual.

Available in two everyday sizes:

  • 8 fl oz: Perfectly proportioned for flat whites, cappuccinos, or a quiet mid-morning brew.

  • 10 fl oz: The ultimate substantial mug for slow Sundays, filled to the brim with hot chocolate or builder's tea.

The Details:

  • Dimensions: Approx. 9cm high x 9cm wide.

  • Clay Body: High-fired, warm earthenware clay.

  • Special Features: Hand-trimmed pedestal base for elevation and heat protection; clear glazed interior for effortless washing.

  • Glaze: Honey Caramel gloss exterior with warm amber undertones.

  • Crafted by: Hand-thrown and individually trimmed by Nina in Shropshire.

  • Care: Fully dishwasher and microwave safe for easy everyday comfort.

  • Shipping: Safely wrapped in 100% plastic-free, recyclable packaging and sent via Royal Mail Tracked delivery across the UK.

One-of-a-kind beauty: Because each mug is thrown and trimmed individually on the wheel, no two pedestal bases or glaze pools are ever completely identical. Yours will feature its own subtle variations, making it a completely unique piece of studio pottery.

A gentle note on our small-batch process: Because I work in very small, intentional batches, there may be times when an item is out of stock; if so, I will happily hand-craft your piece to order, a slow-made process that typically takes between 6 to 8 weeks from the wheel to the kiln.

FAQs

Yes, unless otherwise stated the item is dishwasher safe, however to preserve the finish and help improve the longevity of your pottery, I recommend washing it by hand wherever possible. 

Overtime dishwashers can cause additional wear on ceramics, especially with intricate glazes or decorations.

In particular circumstances where a lower fire clay is used, this is clear in the description of the item and while still may 'survive' a dishwasher it will effect the glaze/colours quicker.

want you to love your ceramics as much as I loved making them. However, I understand that sometimes things don't go as planned.

In the Unlikely Event of Breakages; While I pride myself on my robust, plastic-free packaging, the journey of a ceramic piece can occasionally be a bumpy one. If your item arrives damaged:


  1. Please take a photo of the broken item and the packaging it arrived in immediately.

  2. Email me at nina@ceramicsbynina.com within 48 hours of delivery with your order number and the photos attached.

  3. Replacement or Refund: We will either send out a replacement (subject to availability in our current small-batch stock) or issue a full refund including your original shipping costs.

Please note: As every piece is unique and hand-thrown, replacement items may have slight variations in shape or hand-painted detail compared to the original.

If your order is for a specific date please contact me ahead of ordering and we can arrange a timed and trackable delivery. This will be at an additional cost.
