Flag of the Mori Lords of Hagi in Nagato Province B (Japan) White Coffee Mug

A white crescent bar and three white circles stand out in stark contrast against a black field, the second banner variant of the Mōri lords of Hagi.

Visual Elements & Composition

Black covers most of the design, and the white emblem sits boldly within it. A curved horizontal bar spans the upper part of the mark, and three round white dots form a triangle beneath it. Thin diagonal white stripes run through the lower-right corner, adding a sense of motion to an otherwise static crest. The flat vector finish has no shading, so the contrast between the two colours does most of the work.

Meaning & Symbolism

The Mōri governed Chōshū Domain from Hagi Castle in Nagato Province, present-day Yamaguchi Prefecture, through the whole Edo period. Their roots ran back to the Minamoto line through Ōe no Hiromoto. Mōri Motonari raised the family to western power in the Sengoku period, before the defeat at Sekigahara in 1600 reduced them to holding Suo and Nagato. Their kamon, the Ichimonji Mitsuboshi, is three stars set under a single bar, and the crest here reflects that arrangement. Chōshū samurai were central to the sonnō jōi movement and to the Meiji Restoration of 1868.

The Banner in the Hand

A mug is held close and turned as it is drunk from, so the emblem suits a round surface. The bar and circles sit across the front of the cup, and the diagonal stripes wrap around the side as the mug is lifted. Set against black, the white shapes stay sharp and easy to read from across the table.

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.
