Banded Mug - Medium
Mugs are a truly timeless, inspirational, simple, and efficient object. We simply have to stop the adjectives there, as there are too many to identify the “Mug”. Since prehistoric people began using the most primitive tools to hold food and beverages millenia ago, we fast forward to now. The form hasn’t changed very much, comparatively, in that time period. Simplicity!
We at SPAC do not intend on changing the Mug. We simply want to offer you the absolute best mug we can. We want you to be comfortable and happy with a mug from us. We want to earn that spot on your counter or in your cupboard! We know pottery quite well, but we like to believe we know mugs even better. Some consider the mug as the “resume” of a ceramic artist. We hope we get an interview! All of our mug styles are available in 3 different sizes, ranging in weight and size, as well as, in volume held. This mug holds around 14 ounces.
This Mug is microwave and dishwasher safe!
This piece is approximately 3.5”wide and 6”tall.
It weighs approximately 1 pound.

GLAZE SELECTION
Our entire line of glazes is available for all custom catalog items. We have a "GLAZES IN DETAIL" section on our website to view all the glazes in their many iterations, on many different surfaces, and in different lighting settings. We recommend visiting this page when considering your glaze options. We do our best to accurately portray all of the glazes in photo form so there are no unwanted surprises with the surface when you receive your item!
You will also find a "HERE" link highlighted in blue, in each item description. Clicking this will take you to the Glazes in Detail page, as well.
***It is important to note that with handmade stoneware, and specifically with stoneware glaze, variations and fluctuations in the surface are to be expected and will occur.***
REFUNDS
Here at SPAC, we want the folks that buy our products to be completely happy with their decision! We try our best to make high quality stoneware pottery and take great pride in our ability to do so.
However, if you are unhappy with the item you received from us because it varies from what was advertised, we are happy to remake it or refund the purchase price. We ask that you contact us directly with any questions before placing any order. The last thing we want is for someone to order a piece and for them to receive something completely different than expected!
If you place an order, and production has started on that order, you cannot request a refund.
TIME TO COMPLETE
Since SPAC offers such a variety of custom made wares, most items are made to order. Turning something from clay into fired stoneware is a lengthy process. If you have experience with stoneware pottery, this likely is not news for you. For those of you who would like more information about this process, please check out the “THE PROCESS” tab on our website for the full story.
Because of this lengthy drying and firing process, your custom ordered pottery will take at least 3 weeks. It could be less, and it could be more. It is difficult to state an exact time due to:
-
The size and/or complexity of the item. (Larger and wider forms take longer to dry and fire.)
-
The number of orders hitting the shop at any given time. Holidays are busy. (If I get a bulk order right before a one mug order, this takes up more time. If I get 30 orders in a week, this takes up more time.)
-
How busy the studio is with classes and member events. (More classes equals less time for production.)
-
Mistakes. We are professionals, but we make mistakes. (Clay is a natural material that can warp, crack, or chip in its drying or firing stages. They may need to be remade.)
A fair estimate for an order time would be 3-6 weeks (again, depending on size and complexity of order). Larger orders will take longer. If this timeline is not an option for you, please reach out to us directly and we can discuss expedited options for you.
