Flag of Assen the capital of the province of Drenthe Netherlands - White Coffee Mug

This design reproduces the official flag of Assen, the capital of the Dutch province of Drenthe, as a clean two-band horizontal bicolour of blue over white.

Visual Elements & Composition

The flag is built from just two equal stripes. The blue band sits along the top and the white band fills the bottom, so the eye reads the whole field at once with no border, emblem or lettering to break it up. The palette is restrained and direct, and the blue is taken straight from the azure shield in the municipal coat of arms, which keeps the flag tied to its civic source.

Meaning & Symbolism

Assen's flag was adopted on May 21, 1959, and it works as a regional emblem for the city and the wider Drenthe community. Its meaning sits in its colours: the blue of the coat of arms carries the town's identity into a plain, modern form. The minimalism is deliberate. A flag that needs no detail to be recognised is a flag that belongs to everyone who lives under it, and that quiet confidence is the point of civic heraldry.

Turning It in the Hand

A mug is a object you turn as you drink, so the two bands meet the eye in sequence rather than all at once. The blue band rises above the rim as the cup is lifted, and the white band reads as the base of the composition. Pick it up for a morning coffee or a slow evening tea and the design shifts with every turn, which suits a flag that is all about clear, simple structure.

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.
