This Handmade Pottery Bird Mug, glazed in a soothing Green and Cream, is the perfect gift for any coffee or tea lover who appreciates functional art. Unlike mass-produced ceramic mugs, each of these mugs begins as a flat slab of clay, carefully hand-folded into its distinctive shape.

Fired to Cone 10 for superior durability—compared to most commercial ceramics fired at Cone 5—this mug is designed to last a lifetime. Each piece undergoes over 14 hands-on steps and takes 9 days to complete, ensuring that no two mugs are exactly alike.

The Process:

Every mug starts as a hand-built stoneware slab, shaped and textured to create a truly one-of-a-kind look. The mug is then dipped in hand-mixed glazes and high-fired in a rural studio, making it a beautiful yet functional everyday piece.

Mug Details:

✔ Size: 4.25" high x 3.25" wide
✔ Weight: 12 oz
✔ Durability: Food, dishwasher, oven, & microwave safe

Created by Colleen Deiss Designs. This is a handcrafted piece of art pottery, meaning finished items will have natural variations in color and texture. Due to differences in monitors, colors may vary slightly from images. Additionally, since each piece is handmade, glazes may differ slightly from the photo, making every mug a truly one-of-a-kind creation.

Bring a touch of handcrafted artistry to your daily routine with this beautiful and durable Bird Mug—a testament to quality craftsmanship and timeless design.

All of our functional pottery is microwave, oven and dishwasher safe. All glazes are lead free and safe for food. Do not place them on direct heat and avoid extreme temperature changes (start in a cold oven). Pottery should never be placed under a broiler, over direct flame or on the stovetop. Let pottery preheat with the oven. You can take the chill off by filling with hot tap water before putting in a preheated oven or adding very hot liquids or food. If taking pottery directly from the refrigerator let it warm up a little before placing in a hot oven or heating in the microwave. Setting a hot dish on cold tile or countertop is another source of thermal shock. Use a potholder, cork or wooden trivet. Pottery is dishwasher safe and many find it safer washing by machine than by slippery hands. However for longest life, many potters recommend hand washing to avoid chipping.
