Arms of Scotland (1694-1702) - White Coffee Mug

This design sets the Arms of Scotland as they were displayed between 1694 and 1702, a short window at the close of the seventeenth century and the threshold of the eighteenth.

Visual Elements & Composition

A quartered heater shield dominates the design, flat and graphic in its vector drawing. Gold yellow takes up the largest share of the palette, joined by royal blue, red and a deeper dark red. Rampant red lions stride through the upper quarters, while passant gold lions appear in the others. Gold fleurs-de-lis punctuate the borders, and a gold harp with a maiden figure sits within the composition. At the centre, a small gold lion stands on a blue inescutcheon, the heraldic shield set within the larger one.

Meaning & Symbolism

Heraldry recorded who held authority and how a nation chose to present itself. Each figure here carries that weight: the lions speak of Scottish sovereignty, the fleurs-de-lis of the long alliance and shared heraldic language across Europe, and the harp and maiden of the wider royal arms. The inescutcheon places a smaller emblem at the heart of the whole, a reminder that the arms were built from many parts into one formal statement. Because the design follows the arms as they were presented in these specific years, it reads as a record of a moment, not a generalised emblem.

Designed for the Hand

A mug is turned in the hands as it is drunk from, so the shield never sits still. Each quarter comes round to the front in turn, and the lions and fleurs-de-lis pass the eye one after another, much like reading a shield at close range. Held close, the blue inescutcheon and its small gold lion become the detail you find on the last sip.

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.
