Product Information
Full details
The Olympia Kiln Mug in Moss is designed for professional hospitality environments and home kitchens that prioritize aesthetic charm alongside commercial-grade durability. It offers a warm, nature-inspired presentation that elevates any beverage service, though users should be aware that the reactive glaze process creates unique variations in color and texture between individual mugs, meaning no two pieces are exactly identical.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Olympia Kiln collection, follow these simple care guidelines:
- Initial Cleaning: Wash all mugs in warm soapy water or a dishwasher cycle before the first use to remove any production dust.
- Dishwasher Use: These mugs are safe for commercial and domestic dishwasher cycles. Avoid overcrowding the dishwasher to prevent incidental chipping.
- Microwave Use: The mugs are safe for microwave use; however, they may become hot to the touch after extended heating cycles, so handle with care.
- Handling: While vitrified to a high standard, avoid extreme thermal shock—such as taking a mug directly from a freezer to a preheated oven—as this can cause fine cracks in the glaze over time.
