Canada - Saskatchewan & Manitoba (1979) Design

This design is a map of two neighbouring Canadian provinces, Saskatchewan and Manitoba, dated to 1979.

Visual Elements & Composition

The map is the whole subject. Its focus sits on the two prairie provinces, with the wider country present only as context. Nothing competes for attention: no decorative border, no illustrated figures, just the geography and the year. The composition is plain and direct, so the eye goes straight to the shapes of the provincial boundaries and the lettering that names them.

Meaning & Symbolism

A regional map of this kind is a record of how a place was defined at a particular moment. Saskatchewan and Manitoba share a long border and sit side by side in the centre of the country, so pairing them tells a story about the prairie region as a connected landscape. The 1979 date anchors the piece to the late 1970s, a time when these provinces were already settled, working places with established identities. For anyone with family, work or memories tied to the prairies, the design reads as a quiet tribute to home ground.

Turning the Map in Your Hand

A mug is held and turned, so the map never appears all at once. Each quarter turn brings a different stretch of the borders into view, and the two provinces meet at the point where the design wraps back on itself. The handle sits against one side of the image, which leaves the map unbroken on the face you look at while you drink. It is a design made for slow, repeated looking, the kind you do over a morning cup.

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.
