A stackable everyday mug in Mino-ware stoneware — hand-finished, sized for coffee, tea or dessert, and built to nest with itself for space-saving storage. 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 Stack Mug is one of their signature pieces: a contemporary form, lightly textured surface, and a slim foot designed so two or three mugs nest together neatly in a cupboard. Mino-ware stoneware is naturally a little porous, which is part of its character — it warms in the hand and develops a quiet patina with use. What's good about it 280ml capacity — right for coffee, tea, or a small dessert serving Stacks neatly with itself for cupboard storage Lightly textured surface; comfortable handle Microwave and dishwasher safe (gentle cycle recommended) By CHIPS (est. 2016), produced in Tajimi, Gifu prefecture Care Before first use: seal the surface by soaking the mug in rice water (or gently boiling it in rice water) for a few minutes. The rice starch fills the natural pores and helps the stoneware resist stains. Before each use: soak in clean water for 5–10 minutes if you're going to use it for something heavily staining (strong coffee or tea). After use: wash with detergent, dry thoroughly before storing. Don't leave damp. Specifications Capacity: 280ml Material: Mino-ware stoneware Type: Stackable mug Brand: CHIPS (est. 2016) Origin: Tajimi, Gifu prefecture, Japan Made in Gifu prefecture, Japan.
