Looking for a gift for someone who never starts the day without coffee? A handmade mug is one of those rare presents that gets used every single morning, and it quietly reminds them of you each time. Here are our favourite pieces from the studio, grouped by the kind of person you are shopping for.
For the morning-ritual coffee lover
Someone who takes their first cup seriously deserves a mug that feels good in the hand. Our Cobalt Blue Squiggle Mug and Dark Green Squiggle Mug hold 13.5 oz and have a sculptural squiggle handle that is surprisingly comfortable to grip. For a softer palette, the Terracotta Coral Mug brings a warm, earthy colour to slow mornings.
For the friend who loves colour
Bright kitchens and bold outfits? Go for the Copper Pink Zigzag Mug, a large 15 oz cup with a square wave handle, or the Periwinkle Mug with its navy interior and geometric handle. The Lavender Plum Squiggle Mug has a variegated glaze, so every piece comes out a little different.
For the one with a sense of humour
Some gifts should make them smile before the coffee kicks in. The Fried Egg Mug is made for brunch lovers, the Doodle Mug is pure cheerful energy, and the Hand-Painted Floral Mug brings a garden to the breakfast table all year round.
For the minimalist
Clean lines, calm colours. The Warm White Squiggle Mug lets the handle do the talking, while the Black Brushstroke Mug and the Clothesline Mug add a graphic touch without shouting.
For the dark academia soul
For readers of gothic novels and lovers of candlelit evenings: the Chocolate Drip Mug with Rose Handle is romantic and a little dramatic, and the Barbed Wire Mug is a sculptural 15 oz stoneware piece with an edge.
For the home cook (or the cocktail maker)
Not everyone needs another mug, but almost everyone uses lemons. Our porcelain citrus juicers have a ridged reamer, a bowl and a pour spout, and they look good enough to leave out on the counter. Pick the Sunny Yellow, Deep Blue, Warm White or Red one to match their kitchen. Need ideas for using it? Our guide on how to use a ceramic citrus juicer has a few.
A few gifting tips
- Pair them. A mug and a juicer in matching colours make a thoughtful kitchen set.
- Every piece is unique. Our pieces are shaped and glazed by hand, so small variations in glaze and handle are part of the charm, and something worth mentioning in your card.
- Everyday-proof. Our mugs and juicers are dishwasher and microwave safe, made with food-safe, lead-free glazes. Share our care guide so the gift stays beautiful for years.
- Order early. In-stock pieces leave our studio within 3 business days with free international shipping, but delivery times vary by country, especially in December.
