Why this cups & mug earns its place
This 20 cl cup is sized for a proper coffee service—espresso with room to fill with hot water, or a small filter coffee that stays hot longer in the thick-walled porcelain. Vitrified porcelain holds heat remarkably well; the glaze traps warmth inside and slows transfer to the hand, so the cup stays comfortable to hold even as the coffee stays hot. The delicate embossment is fired into the form, adding visual distinction without fragility.
The handle is designed at a diameter that sits comfortably in three fingers, with a gap wide enough for a full hand even with a napkin or a server's grip. Vitrified porcelain survives daily washing, boiling water, and commercial alkaline detergent without crazing, browning, or chipping. At high turnover, the cup pays for itself in durability.
