Coat of arms of Guatemala (1843-1851) - Accent Coffee Mug

This is the coat of arms Guatemala used between 1843 and 1851, a formal piece of national heraldry drawn in flat, confident colour.

Visual Elements & Composition

A shield sits at the centre of the design, ringed by a laurel wreath and a circular seal. Red takes the largest share of the palette, with sky blue, green, gold and grey filling the rest. A rising sun with a face looks out over mountains, and four arrows cross the lower field. The lettering reads GUATEMALA, EN CENTRO AMERICA and 15 DE SEPT DE 1821, so the date of independence is written into the emblem itself.

Meaning & Symbolism

The parchment scroll carries the independence date, marking the nation's liberation. Above it, the resplendent quetzal stands for freedom, since the bird is known to perish in captivity. The crossed rifles speak to readiness to defend the country's borders, and the crossed swords stand for justice and honour. The laurel wreath, a traditional sign of victory, frames the whole arrangement. Guatemala declared independence on 15 September 1821, and this version of the arms belongs to the decades that followed, when the young state was building its national iconography.

On the Accent Coffee Mug

A mug is turned in the hand, so the emblem reveals itself a piece at a time. The shield, the quetzal and the date come round as you rotate it on a slow morning, and the laurel wreath keeps the full composition in view. It makes a warm, slightly cheeky gift for anyone who likes their breakfast with a little history on the side.

Accent ceramic mugs with a glossy white exterior and a colored interior & handle. Offered in 11 oz (≈330 ml) and 15 oz (≈440 ml), these mugs pair strong visual contrast with everyday durability — lead- and BPA-free.

Bright interiors and matching handles add a crisp pop of color to classic white ceramic. The glossy glaze gives prints a smooth backdrop while the colored inside creates an instant focal point on any table or shelf.

Available in multiple accent colors, these mugs keep a familiar C-shaped handle and a comfortable mouth for sipping. They’re designed to be both decorative and practical, holding up to daily routines without fuss.

  • Material: white ceramic body with colored interior and handle; glossy finish.
  • Sizes: 11 oz (≈330 ml) and 15 oz (≈440 ml) to match different serving needs.
  • Design: high-contrast interior brings vivid attention to your chosen colorway.
  • Safety: lead- and BPA-free, suitable for everyday hot beverages.
  • Function: classic C-handle for secure holding and easy lifting.

These accent mugs are ideal for daily coffee, tea, and cocoa. The colored interior makes them easy to identify in shared kitchens and gives a little designer touch to a breakfast nook.

  1. Everyday use: comfortable for morning routines and built to fit in most cupboards and cupholders.
  2. Office-ready: stand out on a desk without being flashy — useful for communal spaces or personal mugs.
  3. Pairing: mix and match interior colors across sets for a coordinated but lively collection.

Tip: darker interior colors hide light staining better over time; lighter colors show contrast with froth and cream.

These mugs are dishwasher- and microwave-safe, but gentle handling prolongs the finish. Use the top rack for dishwashing and avoid harsh scrubbing pads to keep the glossy surface and color bright.

For best long-term results, hand-wash with mild soap and a soft sponge when possible. Avoid soaking in aggressive detergents and don’t microwave empty mugs.

Two sizes available: 11 oz (approx. 330 ml) and 15 oz (approx. 440 ml). The smaller size fits classic morning pours; the larger one gives space for milk, foam, or an extra-long pour.
