Iittala Arabia Finland Tuokio Mug 12 oz

These mugs are a work of art. I bought three and each one is substantial in terms of weight. They are not flimsy and can hold quite an amount of liquid. I do not put them in the dishwasher --- I handwash each one because I enjoy the feel of the ceramic in my hand. I love the blue fleck detail -- the dark hue is very Finnish and reminds me of the winter in their country (they rarely get sunlight during the day). The space in the handle allows for my other fingers to fit through and feel the warmth of whatever it is I am drinking.It's pricey, but it is worth it. You aren't just getting a mug. You're getting a piece of Finland's culture. Iittala Arabia is one of their prize brands and their products have stood the test of time and their repeat customers all know it. I count myself lucky I was able to score these babies.

I got a bowl a year ago, I know the price is not ideal but I never stop like it more everyday after I got it, the pattern just grow on me, I have to get all the items I may need of that set. When you touch it, just feel so inviting and so easy to clean, i just love the set. But the mug handle is a bit narrow though, maybe the designer thinks it won't fit the big picture if the handle is big enough to put four fingers in. I don't mind myself but if you do, I still strongly recommend the whole set, they are just worthy of no matter how much or little effort you put in your meal, food just tastes better come from it.

Like the design but disappointed by the very yellowish porcelain. It’s not as white as in the illustration by merchant.

I love the rich deep blue of this brushstroke pattern!!!

ショップで見て一目惚れして安かったこちらで購入しました。取っ手のところで途切れてしまう模様のマグカップが多い中、このカップの模様は途切れず一周します。上から下への丸みも程よく手によく馴染みます。試していませんが、電子レンジ、食洗機、オーブンでの使用が可能だそうです。知らなかったのですが、このシリーズは映画「かもめ食堂」で使われていたとか。気に入ったマグカップでゆっくり飲むコーヒータイムを長く続けられそうです。

デザインが好き

特に店の方と対応はしていませんが、早く着き、特に問題ありません。非常によいと思います。

ますデザインが秀逸で素晴らしいです。ただ、大きめのマグカップとしては標準的な大きさで使いやすいのですが、底がカップの大きさの割に小さく不安定な形状で、経験上オフィスで使うには倒れる心配がゼロではないのが気掛かりです。
