Ribbed Glazed Travel Mug – Large 24 oz Handmade Ceramic Tumbler with Lid
Elevate your daily coffee ritual with our Ribbed Glazed Travel Mug, a generously sized 24 oz ceramic tumbler designed for modern life. Hand-crafted in our family studio in Jaroso, Colorado, this mug offers the perfect combination of tactile comfort, visual depth, and everyday functionality.
Its deep ribbed texture enhances grip and adds sculptural elegance, while the tall, tapered shape is purpose-built to fit most car cup holders. Topped with a spill-resistant, BPA-free silicone lid, this mug transforms your morning commute or slow afternoon into a grounded, ceramic experience. The layered glaze—dipped by hand—creates natural gradients of earthy tones, ensuring that no two mugs are ever the same.
