North America - Canada, Alaska, Greenland (1947) - Ceramic Mug Design

This design is a map of northern North America as it stood in 1947, with Canada, Alaska and Greenland as its subject.

Visual Elements & Composition

The map is built around the northern territories. Canada, Alaska and Greenland take the centre of the layout, and the rest of the continent recedes to give them room. Its linework is plain and direct, with no decorative border or ornament competing for attention. The labels name the territories and the year, so the map reads as a document first and an illustration second.

Meaning & Symbolism

A map from 1947 records how people understood the land at that moment. The boundaries shown belong to the years just after the Second World War, when the northern regions were still being surveyed, named and charted with the tools of the day. Looking at it now, you see a snapshot of mid-century geography: the territories as they were drawn, not as they are today. For anyone who collects old maps or studies cartographic history, that snapshot is the point of the piece.

Turning It in Your Hands

A mug is a curved surface you turn as you drink, so this map is never seen all at once. Each turn brings another stretch of the northern coastline around to the front, and the territories appear and vanish with every sip. It is a gift for the kind of person who likes to linger over a map, and a mug is the right object for that: close, slow, and held for as long as the coffee lasts.

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.
