Design & Craftsmanship • Artisanal Heritage: These mugs are crafted from high-quality volcanic clay sourced from the riverbeds near Lake Atitlán. • San Antonio Pattern: The hand-painted "San Antonio" design often features intricate blue and earthy-toned motifs, such as teardrops or floral patterns, inspired by indigenous Tz'utujil Mayan culture. • Individuality: Because they are hand-painted, slight variations in the pattern and color are a hallmark of their authentic, handmade nature. Performance & Durability • Capacity: Typically holds 12 oz, making it versatile enough for a cold craft beer, morning coffee, or tea. Measures 3.5"H x 3" D. • Daily Convenience: High-firing processes ensure the ceramic is microwave and dishwasher safe. • Safety First: Finished with a lead-free, non-toxic glaze for worry-free everyday use. Impactful Purchase • Fair Trade: Buying these ceramics directly supports fair trade principles, helping to provide sustainable livelihoods and education for artisan families in the Sololá region.
