About this design
NH11C-IN
NH11C-IN (India) (Road Sign) White Coffee Mug
The NH11C-IN design is a conceptual piece built around a single alphanumeric code, with India named as its geographic anchor.
Visual Elements & Composition
The design is organised around its identifier. The code NH11C-IN sits at the centre of the composition, with the bracketed word (India) beside it and the road sign framing the whole piece. The layout is deliberately plain: no ornament, no scene, just type arranged with the discipline of a signpost. That restraint is the point, and the eye settles on the characters first, then on the regional label that gives them meaning.
Meaning & Symbolism
The design sets systematic labelling against regional identity. A code like NH11C-IN reads as a catalogue reference, the kind of marker used to sort and locate things, and here it is applied to India as a whole. The result is a quiet argument that a country can be understood through its own organised signs, its geography rendered as an index. The piece belongs to a curated India-themed series, and its neutral mood lets the idea of place and order do the talking.
Turned in the Hand
A mug is a thing you turn while you drink, and this design rewards that habit. As the mug rotates, the code and its regional tag pass across the curve in sequence, so the sign is read in pieces rather than all at once. It is a small, personal way to meet a designed object: a conversation held over a morning cup, with India's identifier always within easy view.

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.
