Step into a moment of pause with this enamel-steel mug, crafted for both everyday simplicity and the quiet rituals that shape a life. At House of Tonic, we believe in objects that do more than serve a function—they become part of your rhythm, your landscape, your connection to place. This mug holds that philosophy in the palm of your hand.

Quality & Materials

• Formed from heavy-gauge steel and finished with layers of hand-applied porcelain enamel, each mug is built through a multi-stage process: base enamel, colour coat, and a fired-in design that becomes part of the glaze itself.

• This kiln-firing technique—practiced in Europe for more than a century—creates a smooth, non-porous surface that resists rust, UV damage, scratches and everyday wear.

• The decoration is not printed on top; it is fused into the enamel through high-temperature ceramic firing, ensuring long-term durability and color stability.

• Lightweight yet remarkably strong, the mug is made for firesides, camp mornings, slow home days and everything in between.

Why this piece matters for House of Tonic

• Rooted in heritage – The craft behind this mug carries the lineage of a long European enamel tradition, preserving techniques passed down through generations.

• An object of ritual – Whether you’re sipping coffee at dawn in the Schoolhouse Sanctuary or enjoying tea beside the cabin stove, this mug becomes part of the moment.

• Beauty built to endure – Like our skincare, it balances durability and aesthetic integrity—something meant to be used, loved, and lived with.

• A companion to place – This mug is not just drinkware; it invites a slower tempo, a deeper breath and a sense of belonging to the land that surrounds you.

Care & Use

• Wash before first use with warm water and gentle soap; avoid abrasive scrubbers that may damage the enamel finish.

• Suitable for stovetop, oven, freezer and campfire use due to its steel-and-enamel construction.

• Avoid sudden temperature shocks (for example, moving directly from freezing cold to open flame).

• If the enamel chips and exposes the steel, the mug remains functional; simply be mindful with very hot liquids.
