FAQs

How does the colour change work?

The mug has a special heat-sensitive coating. When a hot liquid is poured in, the coating reacts to the temperature change, revealing the hidden lunar eclipse design underneath. As the liquid cools, the design gradually fades back.

Can I put this mug in the dishwasher?

No, this mug is not dishwasher safe. The high heat and strong detergents in a dishwasher can damage the heat-sensitive coating, preventing the colour-changing effect from working correctly.

Can I use this mug in the microwave?

No, this mug is not microwave safe. Microwaving can damage the heat-sensitive coating and potentially affect the integrity of the mug.

What happens when the drink cools down?

As the drink cools and the liquid level decreases, the lunar design will gradually fade, mimicking the natural waning of the moon. This creates a dynamic visual effect throughout your drinking experience.

What are the dimensions of the mug?

The mug measures approximately H:9.7 x W:12 x D:8.3 cm.

What material is the mug made of?

The mug is made of ceramic.

What is the weight of the mug?

The mug weighs approximately 0.3 kg.

Troubleshooting

Colour change does not appear

Ensure the beverage poured into the mug is sufficiently hot. The heat-sensitive coating requires a significant temperature change to activate the design. If the drink is lukewarm, the effect may be minimal or absent.

Design fades too quickly

The fading is a natural part of the design, mimicking the waning moon as the drink cools. If it seems to fade exceptionally fast, ensure the water used for washing has not damaged the coating. Hand wash gently.

Coating appears damaged or scratched

This mug is not dishwasher or microwave safe. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh detergents when hand washing. Gentle cleaning with a soft cloth or sponge is recommended.
