Flag of Ottawa 1902-1987 (Canada) - Ceramic Mug Design

This design reproduces the former official municipal flag of Ottawa, the emblem the Canadian capital flew as its civic standard from 1902 until 1987.

Visual Elements & Composition

The flag is a single, formal emblem built for clear recognition at a glance. Its layout is centred and symmetrical, with the city's heraldic device occupying the field so that nothing competes with it. The design is reproduced as a complete flag, not a fragment, so the full proportions and emblem read as they would have on a municipal building or civic ceremony. Its restraint suits the historical mood of the piece.

Meaning & Symbolism

Municipal flags were created to give a city a visual identity of its own, and this one stood for Ottawa throughout most of the twentieth century. The years 1902 to 1987 mark the span of its official use, an eighty-five-year chapter of local government and civic life. The design therefore records a specific era of the city's administration, and it preserves a symbol that was replaced when Ottawa adopted a new flag in its modern transition.

Made for the Hand and the Morning Brew

A mug is turned slowly in the hands, so the flag is seen in pieces with each sip, then whole when the cup is set down on the desk. It is a fitting companion for anyone who reads municipal history over a morning coffee, or who enjoys keeping a little civic ephemera close at hand. Gift it to the Ottawa history buff in your life, or keep it for yourself and let the capital's past warm your 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.
