Bought for a family member as a Christmas present. She loves it! Keeps her tea hot as she’s eating her breakfast.

I really love my Teacups 13oz Coffee Mugs with Lid Porcelain Cups Embossed with Peony Chinese Celadon.It is really pretty and so delicate looking but is strong and sturdy. I'm 73 yrs old and my hands are not as strong as they used to be especially my right hand (I'm a lefty) and there are times I can't carry my cup in my right hand so keep in mind that this cup has a little bit of weight to it.There is one thing I wasn't happy about when I received my cup. On the bottom there is suppose to be a gold label or stamped emblem that shows the makers mark I would assume. Mine has like a stamp that is not clear at all so I can't see who actually designed it. That is a shame because I would have liked to find more of the designers work. But this cup is still a 5 star in my book.

This teacup arrived in awesome packaging that would avoid damage unless an elephant stomped it. It is a beautiful dreamy shade of green with flower and leaves in relief which appear to be Rununculus. The cup is short enough to fit into a microwave in a hotel room; I always bring my tea with me in a glass container that will fit in their small appliance. This is perfect at home and travel. I do like drinking tea out of a thinner porcelain cup but I have already cracked 3 of them despite a sink mat; I always seem to hit them against the side of the sink. I'll probably order another in the other pattern in blue.

My mom absolutely loves her new mug and it's now her favorite! Great quality, it's beautiful, and arrived securely packaged. I highly recommend this mug as a gift.

This elegant little cup holds my tea and keeps it warm. I can take it onto the deck to read a book and the cover keeps insects out of my tea! Just loverly!

The cup arrived securely thanks to custom fit styrofoam for the cup and lid, that was wrapped in cardboard and taped snuggly. If it arrives broken, there must have been some serious travel issues because they wrapped it very well.The cup is in good condition with no chips or scratches. There is a small blemish on the lid and very bottom of the cup but nothing that will impact the usage.After a good wash, I made a cup of mint tea. As usual, life happens causing a delay for me to get to enjoy my tea. Even after about ten minutes the tea was still very hot thanks to the lid and quality of the cup.I’m very happy with this cup & lid combination. My only negative would be that in my opinion after holding it and using it, I feel it’s a little overpriced.

I am really impressed with this item! First, it arrived really well packaged, so the item was in perfect condition. And it is absolutely beautiful, exactly like it is pictured. The color called 'sky blue' is really celadon, which is one of my favorite colors. The mug is easy to hold and the top fits perfectly in place. I like it so much that I'm considering buying a second one just in case I break this one! I will say that I haven't washed it yet, but I'm planning to hand-wash it to be on the safe side. I definitely recommend this!

Wow, color me impressed in a beautiful shade of milky green celadon! This mug is absolutely stunning. I wish I could give this ten stars, as it's one of the most gorgeous mugs I've ever had the pleasure to own.As a self admitted mug snob who has over two dozen mugs in my ever growing collection, this lovely mug shoots straight to the top of my favorites list. There a few different categories a mug has to tick for me to swoon over it, and this mug hits all of them!First, the weight of it. I have weak hand muscles, so it can't be too heavy, and a lot of mugs are just too bottom heavy and bulky for me to comfortably use when they're full of tea. This mug holds a lot of liquid while still remaining sleek and easily used one handed. The mug feels exceptionally light but still sturdy. I'm not worried about it tipping over.Next, the handle. I want a substantial, easy to hold, smooth handle free of weird bumps or those annoying "thumb rests," that I can comfortably fit three fingers inside of. Again, this mug comes out a clear winner.Onto color and glaze. It's always a delight when I can find a mug in a fun color and beautifully glazed. I will compromise on color if it ends up being a nice shape and weight, but in this case, there was no need to settle. The pale soft green color was hard to capture on my phone - it either looks blue or too dark, but it's a true soft celadon green and absolutely lovely in person. The glaze is silky smooth with not a single blemish. Imagine this being dipped into water that was magically turned into a permanent glaze, and that's how the surface of the mug feels.As to sturdiness, I have run mine through the dishwasher multiple times now (on the top rack) and haven't had any issues with chipping. As someone who drinks tea constantly throughout the day, I go through multiple mugs daily. While I don't consider myself careless, I don't treat my mugs with kid gloves either. This mug has been on my work desk, kitchen table, counter, sink, hung out on the floor while I was working on an art project, and I've not had any issue with it chipping.A fun mug collector note - I always love when a mug is glazed and marked on the bottom, which this one is. It's a sign of craftsmanship to me when that extra step is taken, because it takes skill to nicely finish the bottom of a mug and a lot of companies and artists skip this step to save time. It's like a little secret from the artist telling you they put extra care and attention into the creation of the functional art you're now drinking out of.I am willing to pay for quality mugs, but this exceptional mug yet again comes out a winner on that, coming in at an incredibly affordable price for the level of quality and detail you get. I will definitely be purchasing more of these in the future to give as gifts. Do yourself a favor and buy one, because it's truly a work of art.Update 2/18/23:I purchased the other peony version, and wanted to note that it is a bit smaller, as you can see in my photos. I'm perfectly happy with both, but if you are expecting them to be the exact same size, please note the difference. I absolutely love them both, and am delighted with the detailed designs. Definitely worth the wait for them to be shipped internationally. These have shot straight to the top of my favorite mugs list, and I've already purchased more to give as gifts.
