Studio Gold-Rim Mug
Gold-rimmed porcelain · textured grip · matte finish
The mug betrays the coffee.
You brewed something worth slowing down for, then poured it into the chipped promo mug at the back of the shelf.
The cup you reach for first sets the tone of the whole morning, and most of them were never chosen, just accumulated. The Studio Gold-Rim is the one you choose. Single-layer porcelain with vertical textured ridges that the hand actually registers, finished in a matte glaze with a gold-painted rim and handle, so the gold meets your lip on every sip. Mornings stop feeling like a refuel and start feeling composed.
The first cup, finally worth the table.

Specifications
Care & maintenance
Porcelain is forgiving. Gold detail is not. Hand wash only.
- Hand wash only: Warm water, mild dish soap, soft sponge. The gold rim and handle are metallic paint, dishwashers will strip them over time.
- No microwave: The gold detail is metallic. Microwaving will spark and damage both the mug and the oven.
- Avoid abrasives: Skip steel wool or scouring pads. They scratch the matte glaze and remove the gold.
- Dry fully: Water pooling in the handle joint can leave mineral deposits. Wipe dry or air-dry upside down.
Frequently asked
How much does 10 oz hold in practical terms?
A standard cup of coffee in the US is 8 oz. This mug holds 10 oz to the rim, so a full pour with a bit of room for milk or cream. Not a travel mug, but generous enough for a slow morning.
Why no microwave?
The gold rim and handle are metallic paint. Metal and microwaves don't cooperate, expect sparks, damage to the oven, and a ruined mug. Reheat on the stove or in a kettle instead.
Grey or green?
Grey is neutral, elegant, works with wood or marble counters. Green is warmer, earthy, pairs well with plants or linen napkins. Both have a white interior and gold detail. Pick the one that fits your shelf or your mood.
What is the texture for?
Function meets form. The vertical ridges give the hand something to hold onto, especially when the mug is warm. They also make the mug feel more substantial, less generic.
Will the gold wear off?
Eventually, yes, if you wash it aggressively or put it in the dishwasher. Hand wash with a soft sponge and the gold will last years. It is painted on, not fired in, so treat it like jewelry, gently.
