The saucer has room for a biscuit
Most saucers are decorative and useless. This one has a proper lip beside the handle, so a speculoos or a small pastry sits there without balancing on the rim. 280 ml is a real cup of tea rather than a thimble. The pink is dustier and more grown up than it looks on screen.
Striped Cup and Saucer Set
- A table that looks collected, not bought. Hand-painted stripes, made to be mixed.
- Painted, not printed. The stripes sit under the glaze, so they won't scratch off.
- Won't stain. A non-porous glaze shrugs off coffee, tomato and turmeric.
Mix colours however you like — the set price stays the same.

Description+
A 280 ml striped cup on its own saucer, with a lip wide enough to hold a biscuit beside the handle.
A 280 ml cup on its own saucer, both striped by hand and finished in the same glossy glaze. The cup stands 7.3 cm tall and 8.7 cm across; the saucer runs 12.2 cm wide with a shallow 1.6 cm lip, deep enough to catch a drip and hold a biscuit beside the handle. That is tea-and-something scale rather than a builder's mug.
Four colourways: brown, green, blue and pink. Each order is one cup with its matching saucer, or a set of two or four pairs. Hand wash to protect the painted stripes. The pairs are made to be mixed across colours if you would rather not have four of the same on the table.
The stripes are painted by hand before glazing, so spacing and width shift a little from piece to piece and no two are identical. Glaze depth also changes how the colour reads under warm bulbs versus daylight. That variation is the make, not a fault.

Why the Striped Cup and Saucer Set
Each piece is painted by hand and then glazed over, so the pattern is sealed inside rather than sitting on the surface. It won't scratch off against cutlery or fade in the sink the way a printed transfer does.
The glaze is glossy, food safe and non-porous, which means a tomato sauce or a turmeric latte wipes away instead of leaving a shadow. Microwave fine, hand wash preferred.
The colourways are drawn to sit together rather than match, so a table set with four different ones looks considered. Start with a single piece and add to it, or take a set of two or four at a lower price per piece.

Lovely set, the handles run small
Worth knowing if you have big hands. My husband gets two fingers through the handle and no more, so he holds it by the body. I have no trouble at all. The glaze and the painted stripes are excellent, and the saucer stops rings on the table. Four stars purely on the handle.
Bought a green pair for Sunday mornings and now they are used every day. Hand painted, so the stripes are never quite the same twice. The saucer doubles as a spoon rest, which we did not plan for but use constantly.
Frequently asked questions
Is it dishwasher safe?+
We recommend washing by hand. The glaze itself will survive a dishwasher, but repeated hot cycles and harsh detergent dull hand-painted colour faster than a warm sink does. Hand washing keeps the stripes sharp for years.
Can I use it in the microwave?+
Yes, the glaze carries no metallic content. Let it cool before rinsing rather than moving it straight from a hot microwave to cold water, which risks thermal shock in any ceramic.
Will the stripes look exactly like the photo?+
Close, not identical. Each piece is painted by hand before glazing, so the width and spacing of the stripes shift a little from one to the next. That's how you can tell it isn't a transfer print.
Can I mix colours in a set?+
The set options ship in a single colour. If you want a mixed set, order singles in the colours you want, which comes to the same thing at single-piece pricing.
Is it food safe?+
Yes. The glaze is food safe and non-porous, so it doesn't absorb oils or odours from what you serve on it.
