iittala Taika 13.5 Oz. Blue Mug - TAI500506

These mugs are very nice. Too nice to use as everyday. I wish they were micro-wave safe...then I would use them everyday. Since they are not, I suppose I will just have to use them on Special Occassions.... I wish I could afford a six place setting of the iittala Taika Dinner Ware...

Exceeds our expectation. We were looking for a unique set of coffee mugs special for guests, when we came upon these particular ones. The art work is very detailed. The mugs are just the right size and weight of nice quality. Plan to purchase more for a complete set.

The design enhances your cup of tea. A very sturdy mug of excellent quality.

I use this product daily. My children love the size for Hot Chocolate.

The cups are so colorful and simply wonderful! I am rinking more tea and coffee so I can have them visible. So far they have held up to washing and a bumps on my stone countertops without chipping, and surviving rough handling from my 12 yr old losing and unloading the dishwasher. I love the bright colors and the Scandinavian folk styling. I intend to purchase more pcs.

I love the design on these mugs but wish the images were a little crisper, but then again, hand painted porcelain like this would be way out of my price range. The mugs are thin but durable and comfortable. Stated on the bottom is printing that they are freezer safe and I can attest to the fact that they are microwave and dishwasher safe also as stated. I got tired of buying hand painted stoneware only to have it chip. These are durable and fun and the magical characters make me happy. Because they are a bit thin they tend to be hot to handle, compared to thicker stoneware, and speaking of handles, these accommodate three fingers, not four, but are simply and beautifully designed.

Product Review

Great item! Not that porous light ceramic that chips at first use, but nice, dense, heavy, solid ceramic. Very nice feel and weight, with gorgeous artwork. I only wish the pictures were clear to let the shopper know that the mug has both the owl AND peacock motifs, and not just the owl. I ended up buying a bowl in white, so I could get the peacock too, when I would have preferred to get another cup in blue.

Service Review

Extremely well packed.

The images are clear and precise. The colors are true and sharp.
