Deruta of Italy Perugino Tall Latte Mug with Handle (16 oz.)
Morning coffee feels more special from a hand-painted Italian mug. DERUTA OF ITALY's Perugino tall latte mug is handcrafted in Deruta, Italy, and holds 16 ounces, so there is plenty of room for a latte, cappuccino, tea, or your usual drip coffee. Its sweeping Renaissance brushwork in royal blue, golden yellow, and deep forest green turns an everyday coffee mug into a small piece of Italian art.
Why You'll Love This DERUTA OF ITALY Mug
- A pattern with centuries of history: Perugino comes from the Raffaellesco design, which dates to the 16th century and was inspired by the graceful arabesques in Raphael's frescoes. This version highlights the tail of the famous Raffaellesco dragon and stays faithful to the original motifs.
- Painted by hand in Deruta: Deruta is a medieval hilltop town known for its ceramics since the 12th century. Master artisans there paint each piece by hand, so no two mugs are exactly alike.
- Authentic Italian maiolica: This earthenware mug is finished with 100% food-safe glazes and colors in the traditional majolica style.
- Tall 16 oz size with a handle: The generous capacity suits milky coffee drinks and large mugs of tea. The handle makes it comfortable to hold.
- Made to be seen: The bold colors look striking on a kitchen shelf, breakfast table, or open display, even when the mug is not in use.
- A memorable gift: It is a thoughtful choice for coffee lovers, collectors of Italian ceramics, or anyone who appreciates Renaissance art.
