Stratificata Coffee & Tea Mug | Hand-Painted Italian Mug from Deruta

The Stratificata Coffee & Tea Mug brings the artistry and character of traditional Deruta ceramics to an everyday form. Hand-painted by skilled artisans in Deruta, Italy, warm golden yellow petal-like forms create the mug’s primary decorative motif, while cobalt blue borders and linework provide definition, contrast, and structure.

The repeating petals wrap around the body of the mug, allowing the pattern to be experienced differently than on the collection’s plates and bowls. Against the luminous white ground, the golden yellow brings warmth to the design while the cobalt detailing defines each form and creates the visual rhythm that connects the mug to the rest of the Stratificata collection.

Perfect for coffee, tea, hot chocolate, or a favorite warm beverage, the generously sized mug feels equally at home during a quiet morning, an afternoon conversation with friends, or a leisurely weekend breakfast. Its substantial handle makes it comfortable for everyday use while its hand-painted character gives even a simple cup of coffee a distinctive presence.

Each mug is individually hand-painted using techniques passed down through generations. Subtle variations in the shape of the petals, brushwork, line weight, color, and glaze reveal the hand of the artisan and give each piece its own character.

Crafted using traditional techniques and double-fired for lasting beauty, the Stratificata Coffee & Tea Mug is designed to be used and enjoyed as part of everyday life.
