Dubuque County Route D53 IA (Iowa) (Road Sign) White Coffee Mug - Design Description

This mug showcases the iconic road sign for Dubuque County Route D53 in Iowa. The design faithfully replicates the official county road shield, a visual marker deeply rooted in American transportation and infrastructure.

The Core Visuals

The design features a pentagon, the standard shape for Iowa county road signs, rendered with a bold and instantly recognizable aesthetic. A vibrant blue background provides the foundation for the design, serving as a backdrop to highlight the vital information it conveys.

Color and Symbolism

Contrasting sharply against the blue, the design utilizes bright yellow for the border and lettering. The yellow acts as a high-visibility element, crucial for quick readability and identification, a fundamental aspect of road signage. The use of yellow against blue also creates a visually stimulating design that is easily seen and interpreted.

The Message

The central element is the designation "D53," boldly inscribed in yellow, the identifying mark of this specific Dubuque County route. The inclusion of either “Dubuque County” or simply “County” at the top or bottom of the shield, again in yellow text, grounds the sign in its specific geographic context and purpose. Together, the elements represent the official designation of the county road, helping to navigate and orient 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.
