Slim Mug 280 ml

26 mm handle, for smaller hands

DKK 155incl. 25% moms

A narrower body and a smaller handle loop — 26 mm of clear opening rather than 32. If a standard mug handle leaves your fingers rattling around inside it, this is the one that fits. Lighter too, at 290 g empty.

Measured

Taken from the current production batch. Hand-finished, so individual pieces vary by up to ±5%.

Capacity: 280ml
Rim Ø: 76mm
Handle opening: 26mm
Wall: 5mm
Weight: 290g
Height: 98mm
At 10 min: 64°C
Pieces in box: 1
Stacks: No

Cooling: 95 °C down to 64 °C in ten minutes

31 degrees over ten minutes. Ceramic has no vacuum layer. A thicker wall cools more slowly than a thin one, and that is the whole of the effect — none of these cups keep a drink hot the way a vacuum flask does.

Measured with 95 °C water in a 20 °C room, uncovered and undisturbed, temperature read at the centre of the liquid after 10 minutes.

The reading at ten minutes is measured. The points between are Newton’s law of cooling fitted through it — see how we measure cooling.

Food safety

Food contact: Yes. This is a food contact article under Regulation (EU) No 1935/2004 and carries the glass-and-fork mark on its packaging.
Glaze: Lead-free celadon glaze, food contact
Lead and cadmium: Fillable to more than 25 mm, so the Council Directive 84/500/EEC limits that apply are lead 4.0 mg/L and cadmium 0.3 mg/L.
Declaration of Compliance: DOC-DK-2026-009; Held on file. Ask us for a copy and we will send it.

How to use it

Microwave: Suitable.
Dishwasher: Suitable. 98 mm tall, 76 mm across — check that against your basket.
Temperature: Avoid sudden temperature changes. Do not pour boiling water into a cold cup straight from the fridge, and do not move a hot cup into cold water — ceramic can crack from thermal shock.
Variation: Each cup is finished by hand, so dimensions vary by up to ±5% and no two glazes are identical. Variation in colour, glaze pooling and small surface pinholes are characteristics of the process, not faults.

How and where it is made

Forming: Thrown by hand on a wheel, one at a time
Designed in: Denmark
Made in: Poland
Packing: Cups travel in single-cup cushioned boxes. If something arrives broken, photograph the box and the pieces and tell us within 14 days of delivery — we replace or refund, and we pay the return postage.

Not sure this is the one?

Cup Match asks three questions and filters on the measurements rather than on taste. It will tell you which cups have a wall of 8 mm or more, which have a handle opening of 32 mm or more, and which have no handle at all.
