About

Tea time is the pause button for your day. Whether it’s an early morning earl grey or a sleepytime herbal blend, the handcrafted love we put into our mugs makes your experience feel just a little more grounded. While our other mugs are thicker, this stoneware teacup features a slim profile that fits perfectly in smaller hands. It holds just the right amount without the extra weight.

Why It’s A Tea Lover’s Favorite Cup:

  • Made with lead-safe materials for pure, unaltered flavor
  • Tea mug size is perfect for tea, espresso, or juice
  • Dishwasher, microwave, and oven safe

    I ordered the dragonfly and dogwood patterns. They are so charming and beautifully painted. We enjoy the slim profile of these cups because they’re easier to hold and to store. The lip of the cup is rolled outward so that liquid doesn’t drip down the side when you drink from it. It is also less bulky than their other cups. The dogwood pattern has a texture to the glaze which I didn’t think I would like–it turns out I love it! There is much less slippage when washing and handling it.

    We bought a teacup in Camden ME, loved it so much I ordered another when we came back home.

    I love the idea that I can put this in the microwave and not worry about lead or other chemicals getting into the beverage. It’s a beautiful mug as well!

    • Emerson Creek Pottery Marketing –

      Thanks for your review, Brenda! You’ll never find lead, cadmium, or other toxic materials in our pottery.

    I love the size of these cups and the fact they have more height than width to them. They are lovely and our go-to choice out of the cupboard. Love everything about them. I buy pottery from Louisville Stoneware and thought those the best, but these are even better and have a more delicate appearance that sets them apart from everything else. Love your attention to detail!

    • Emerson Creek Pottery Marketing –

      Thank you for your kind, thorough review! We are so happy to hear you like your new pottery.

    Beautiful, just right for a cup of tea. The weight of the cup keeps the tea warm and hands warm as well! A very comfortable size for tea and coffee as well.

      We’re glad to hear you like your new teacups! We appreciate your thoughtful review.

    Beautiful, well made mug. I had wanted to order one of these since reading about possible impacts from microwaving pottery, and was happy to see the efforts this company goes to – to avoid this issue. I would have loved to order more, but cost is an issue.

    • Emerson Creek Pottery Marketing –

      Thank you for the review, Brenda! We appreciate your purchase. We understand cost can be an issue, and we work to keep prices below our competitors. We have a sale coming up for July 2-4 that will provide free shipping on orders under $150! Hope this helps makes our pottery more affordable 🙂

    Beautiful, durable, and so well liked we’ve ordered some as gifts for our Maryland family and plan to get more for our house.

    This is a beautiful cup. I use it everyday for coffee, not tea. The final shiny glazing is very smooth. It certainly protects the cup from any coffee staining. Keeps beverage hot. It is also easy to hold with two fingers.

    I bought these mugs because of the non-toxic ingredients and testing done for lead and cadmium. My children and I use these and I don’t want leaching into food. As this is made in US and handmade, it is more expensive. It is a great investment.
