FAQs

What is the capacity of this mug?

This mug has a 1/2 pint capacity, which is ideal for a standard-sized coffee or tea.

Is this mug dishwasher safe?

While durable, we recommend hand washing to preserve the integrity of the hand-painted design.

Where is the King's Guard Mug made?

Every mug is proudly handmade in Stoke-on-Trent, England.

What are the dimensions of the mug?

The mug stands 9cm tall and has a diameter of 8cm.

Can I put this mug in the microwave?

While the earthenware is generally microwave safe, excessive heating may affect the long-term appearance of the hand-applied decorations.

Troubleshooting

Light staining from tea or coffee

Use a gentle baking soda paste and a soft cloth to lightly buff the affected area before rinsing thoroughly.

Mug feels too hot to hold

The earthenware retains heat well; allow the beverage to cool for a minute or hold the mug by the handle rather than the body.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

There is no complex setup required for this mug; it is ready to use upon arrival. For maintenance, while the ceramic is robust, it is highly recommended to hand wash the mug in warm soapy water to ensure the hand-painted design remains vibrant over years of use. Avoid using abrasive scouring pads that might scratch the glaze. When storing, ensure it is placed on a stable surface where it will not be knocked against other hard ceramics. It is compatible with standard mug trees and kitchen shelving.
