This beautiful mug is great for coffee, tea, soup, or anything else you would want to use it for! All Jonthepotter ware is dishwasher and microwave safe. This is a one of a kind piece of art that you can use every day! Check out the process of making it at Jonthepotter.com PLEASE NOTE: This is a handmade piece that has imperfections. We hope you will join us in celebrating that fact that each piece is individual and unique, just like everyone who uses them. The pictured mug may or may not not be an exact representation of shipped mug as there are possibly multiple, BUT should be very close. Potter, Jon Schmidt, aka Jon The Potter
