22d New York State Militia Near Harpers Ferry, Va., 1861 I.E.1862 001 (U.S. Civil War) White Coffee Mug

This design is a sepia photograph-style scene of a uniformed soldier standing with his rifle near the Harpers Ferry region of Virginia, in the early 1860s.

Visual Elements & Composition

Warm sepia dominates the image, softened by pale cream highlights and deep brown shadows. A grey-blue border frames the print like an old carte de visite, so the scene reads as a found photograph rather than a painting. The standing soldier sits at the centre of the composition, with a canvas military tent rising in a clean triangular silhouette beside him. A wooden camp stool and the buildings in the background fill out the camp. The small inscription B794 sits in the image, a quiet reminder of the documentary record it imitates.

Meaning & Symbolism

The design belongs to the American Civil War, and its name places it with the 22nd New York State Militia, a unit stationed near Harpers Ferry in 1861. The tent and camp stool speak to everyday soldiering: long waits, makeshift homes, and the routine between marches. The rifle marks the unit's readiness, while the buildings place the men in a town that mattered greatly to the war. Together they tell a story about the people who lived through those months, not only the battles that followed.

Cupped in the Hand

A mug is turned slowly in the hand, so the image unfolds one side at a time. The soldier stands in the first view, the tent and stool come into sight as you rotate it, and the background buildings close the circle. The C-handle keeps the scene in front of you during each sip, which suits a photograph this quiet and this close to the viewer.

Sturdy white ceramic mugs available in 11 oz (≈330 ml) and 15 oz (≈440 ml), with a glossy finish and comfortable C-handle — microwave and dishwasher safe, and made from lead- and BPA-free materials.

These mugs are built from durable white ceramic so colors pop cleanly and prints read with strong contrast. A smooth, glossy glaze gives each mug a lively sheen and makes it easy to wipe clean after daily use.

Both sizes feature a classic C-shaped handle that feels natural in the hand; whether you sip slowly or gulp quickly, the grip is steady. Safety-wise, the ceramic is processed to be lead- and BPA-free — suitable for everyday drinking.

  • Material: white ceramic with a glossy glaze for bright, clear prints.
  • Sizes: 11 oz (≈330 ml) and 15 oz (≈440 ml) to suit small and generous pours.
  • Handle: comfortable C-handle for balanced holding and easy lifting.
  • Safety: lead-free and BPA-free for peace of mind with every cup.
  • Finish: glossy surface that highlights saturated inks and smooth detail.

Perfect for morning coffee, afternoon tea, or a rich hot chocolate — these mugs fit comfortably in most cabinets and cupholders. They’re also a reliable choice for office kitchens where items see frequent use.

  1. Everyday use: safe for hot liquids and daily serving; the wider 15 oz option works great for larger morning routines or extra-steamy drinks.
  2. Office-friendly: the classic profile stacks easily with similar mugs and sits securely on standard saucers and trays.
  3. Gift idea: a practical, well-finished mug is useful and simple to display or wrap for gifting.

Quick note: while the mugs are dishwasher-safe, treating them gently helps keep the print looking fresh longer (see Care tab).

These mugs are rated for microwave and dishwasher use, but small habits extend their life. Run them on the top rack of the dishwasher and avoid high-temperature commercial cycles whenever possible.

For longest-lasting print clarity: hand wash with mild dish soap and a soft cloth, avoid abrasive scouring pads, and don’t let them soak in strong detergents. When microwaving, use short intervals and avoid empty heating.

Available sizes: 11 oz (approximately 330 ml) and 15 oz (approximately 440 ml). The 11 oz is a classic coffee size; the 15 oz gives extra room for cream, froth, or larger servings.

Each mug has a standard-width mouth for easy sipping and cleaning; height and diameter vary slightly between sizes to maintain comfortable proportions and sturdy balance.
