Japanese sea urchin mug

The term mug refers to the cylindrical container higher than a cup, in which we can drink our hot drinks.

On this pretty Japanese mug , the pattern, represented equally on the entire exterior of the piece, recalls the sea urchins that we find at the bottom of the oceans or in cavities abandoned by the tides. Painted in blue and white, this original pattern takes on the colors of classic Japanese decoration , adding the trendy side of its stylization. The use of ceramic for the body of the mug and stoneware for its base ensures a product that is resistant to time.

The shape of this Japanese ceramic mug is unusual in Japan. It is aimed at fans of Japanese tableware outside the country. Moreover, in Japan, this type of mug replaces beer mugs!
