Ceramic "Texas Tea Cup" Coffee Mug, Made in USA, Cobalt Blue, 16 oz - Pack of 4

I really like a well made, easy to hold, very large and non toxic mug.......I've looked everywhere and this is it. I have no idea about why anyone would criticize anything about this mug...it's just perfect. Your hand will never slip even when wet, nice and thick and really keeps tea and coffee hot a long time, much better than any other high dollar mugs I've purchased or used. I'm really in awe at how much I love this mug...it's design, materials used....just the entire mug is exactly what I've been searching for....OH and I measured and these cups are a full 16 ozs with 1/4 inch room left in cup. These cups are NOT burning my fingers at all so not sure what others are talking about and I make very hot tea and coffee in them........

Warning for folks who suffer from Multiple Chemical Sensitivities or other extreme allergies: There were so many allergens on the box, even my friend was affected. Had to throw all the packaging away immediately. Might consider opening yours outside, if you order these.These are nicer than I expected: The photo doesn't clearly show how large the handles are, and I thought they might be a bit small, but two fingers fit comfortably in the handle, and the shape of the bottom of the handle provides a comfy place for a supporting third finger. Love the shape of the bottom of these cups - very stable. I bought these to replace two mugs of a similar size, but the bottoms of the old ones were narrower than the tops and easy to knock over. That problem is well solved with these.Also really like the absence of cutesy artwork, although I'd enjoy having a choice of colors. Sill, these are a very pleasant off-white, easy to clean and just very nice mugs.Although I far prefer the sturdiness of stoneware, I will definitely order these again if/when the ones I have now get chipped or broken. As far as ceramic mugs go, these are the best ones I've ever purchased. Very satisfied overall.

I've been using these mugs now for several weeks in serving the morning coffee and afternoon tea for my family. These are first quality, generously sized mugs, and I am very pleased with this purchase. Although the design of the handle allows only 2-3 fingers to grab it while the other fingers brace it from the bottom, hot beverages will be impossible to hold in this manner. My solution has been to crochet custom-fitted cozies for these mugs, in variegated colors (e.g. Red Heart's Monet and Autumn). Now, coffee stays hot longer and the mugs look fantastic. I purposefully searched for large, Made in America mugs for the simple reason that I prefer not to worry about ingesting toxic heavy metals leaching out of the glazes of ceramic ware. Hint: If you're concerned like I have been, check out the California Prop 65 link which is posted to certain products being offered on Amazon. My goal now is to use only ceramic ware which has been certified lead and cadmium free. American Mug Pottery and Homer Laughlin are two American companies which do just that. I'm happy and grateful that these two great companies are still around and producing excellent products. Please support American made products!

This is a nice, thick sturdy mug, made in the USA, so it fits all the most important criteria for me. The one odd thing about it, especially for such a large, heavy mug, is that the handle is quite small. I have small, slender hands and can barely fit three fingers into the handle. I would imagine a person with average hands would only be able to grasp it with two. Despite having to make an adjustment in how I hold the mug, I love using it.

The mugs are heavy and seem very well made but the design is poor. It is impossible to get a comfortable grip on the handles, prob cause they are not round in shape. Color is beautiful, but will be returning.

Bought these last year about this time. Started out buying just one set of two for my husband and I. We liked them so much I bought two more. Then company raved about them and we bought them as Christmas gifts. Now more company is here and they want a couple of sets after using ours. So sad when I found out that they are no longer available on Amazon since it's about the only way I shop anymore. I guess I'll try to contact the manufacturer directly since I can't seem to do without them. The mug holds 16 ounces and is comfortable to hold, made in America, very hefty without being too heavy, and doesn't get too hot to hold even after reheating in microwave. I'd give them much more than five stars if I could!

Came very well packaged and the black finish is flawless. Several reviewers complaints include handle too small, lip too big, handle gets too hot when microwaving. I find the handle well designed for TWO fingers and a curve below for the next finger. The lip is beefy which is a personal preference - I don't like thin lipped coffee mugs or wine glasses. The mug gets hot as any other mug I have when microwaving, but the handle stayed cooler than my other mugs.Beautiful mugs that already have people that have seen them ask where to get them.

Love the look of these mugs but two of them crackled when I used them in the microwave to heat up some water.
