Product Information
Full details
The B&Q Turtle Hand Made Ceramic Mug is designed for collectors and nature enthusiasts who appreciate artisanal, functional kitchenware. Its key benefit is the unique, tactile design featuring a sculpted turtle head handle that adds character to any beverage routine. A key caveat is that because each piece is individually hand-painted, slight variations in color and pattern are expected, meaning the mug you receive will not be a perfectly identical match to professional studio photography.

Troubleshooting
Water spots appear after dishwasher cycle
Ensure the mug is angled correctly in the dishwasher rack to allow water to drain from the sculpted handle area.
Surface feels rough or shows minor paint irregularities
This is a natural result of the hand-made and hand-painted process and does not affect the structural integrity of the ceramic.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no complex setup required for this product; simply rinse the mug before its first use. While the mug is dishwasher safe, hand washing can help preserve the vibrancy of the hand-painted details over an extended period. To ensure compatibility with your existing kitchenware, please verify that a 9cm height fits under your specific coffee machine's dispensing nozzle or within your cupboard shelves. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals that could scratch the painted finish.
