These mugs have a curved profile, with narrower tops & bottoms and a wider belly flaring out in-between. Human bodies don’t have straight lines so why should our mugs? Each mug holds about 16oz and measures approximately 5” tall by 3” wide at the rim. Each piece is hand carved with a pattern evoking cattails and reeds. — Handmade from start to finish; dishwasher and microwave safe.
