Henri dArtois Flag of France proposed (France) White Coffee Mug

This design reproduces a 19th-century proposal for a French national flag, attributed to Henri d'Artois, Count of Chambord, that joins the tricolour to royal white and the fleur-de-lis.

Visual Elements & Composition

The flag is built on a rectangle with vertical bands of blue, white and red, the tricolour pattern familiar from revolutionary France. Gold accents mark a royal crown and a shield, while fleur-de-lis motifs sit within the composition. The vertical bands give the design its striped structure, and the heraldic details add a formal, old-world density. The blue and red carry the most colour, with white and gold providing the highlights.

Meaning & Symbolism

The design brings together two rival traditions of French political identity. The tricolour stands for the Revolution, and the white field with fleur-de-lis stands for the Bourbon monarchy. Henri d'Artois refused to accept the tricolour as the condition of his restoration to the throne, and this sketch, found among his papers, records an attempt to reconcile the two. It was never adopted, which makes it a precise document of a moment of 19th-century political tension.

In the Hand on a Mug

A mug is turned in the hand, so the crown, the shield and the fleur-de-lis move across the curved white body as the cup is lifted. The rectangular flag sits centrally on the broad face, and its gold and red details stand out clearly against the ceramic. It suits anyone drawn to French history, royalist tradition or the story of how national flags were debated and designed.

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.
