The Big Mug brings a handmade quality to the everyday ritual of the table. It was chosen for the Levena range for its pared-back character and its ceramic construction, which is the sort of detail that reads as quality long after the novelty of a new piece wears off.The glaze is food-safe and smooth to the lip, and the form stacks neatly in a cupboard that is already full. Each piece is finished by hand, so small variations in glaze and profile are part of the character rather than a flaw. Style it as the one bold element in an otherwise restrained room, or let it sit quietly among pieces you have collected over time. The look is deliberately unfussy, which is what keeps it relevant when the rest of the room changes around it. Consider how the piece will read in daylight as well as under lamplight, since both change the tone of the materials. Small variations in grain, tone and texture are part of how the piece is made, not defects to be matched exactly.Made to be used, washed and used again — the details are on the spec list below. Every Levena order is checked before it leaves us, and the spec list below covers the details worth knowing.
