A 380ml everyday mug in Mino-ware stoneware — generous size, ergonomically curved handle, and a richly glazed finish that warms in the hand. CHIPS is a Japanese ceramics brand based in Tokyo, with production in Tajimi (Gifu prefecture) — the heart of Mino ware, Japan's largest pottery tradition by volume. The 380ml mug is their fuller-size piece: noticeably more capacity than a standard mug, but balanced lightly in the hand thanks to a custom-shaped handle. Each mug is hand-finished with a carefully chosen glaze that reveals the texture of the stoneware underneath. Mino-ware stoneware is naturally a little porous, which is part of its character — the care notes below cover the pre-use sealing ritual. What's good about it 380ml capacity — generous size for coffee, tea or hot chocolate Ergonomic handle, balanced for an easy hold even when full Rich glaze finish that highlights the texture of the stoneware Microwave and dishwasher safe (gentle cycle recommended) Available in multiple glaze colours; comes in a CHIPS gift box By CHIPS (est. 2016), produced in Tajimi, Gifu prefecture Care Before first use: seal the surface by soaking or gently boiling the mug in rice water — the rice starch fills the natural pores and helps resist stains. Before each use: soak in clean water for 5–10 minutes if drinking something heavily staining. After use: wash with detergent, dry thoroughly before storing.
