North America - Land of the Maya, A Traveller's Map (1990) (Map) Accent Coffee Mug

This is a printed cartographic design that spreads the Maya world across the North American continent, drawn as a vintage traveller's map from 1990.

Visual Elements & Composition

A rectangular map sheet fills the frame, framed by an ornate gold border that gives the piece the feel of an old reference atlas. Tan dominates the paper, with sage green covering much of the land and pale blue reserved for water, while gold and a touch of dark red pick out the details. Lettering runs through the design in capitals: LAND OF THE, MAYA and A TRAVELER'S MAP, with place names including YUCATÁN, PENINSULA, BELIZE, GUATEMALA, HONDURAS, EL SALVADOR and MEXICO. A Gulf of Mexico inset sits within an inset panel, so the eye moves from the wider continent to the Yucatán at the centre.

Meaning & Symbolism

The map concentrates on the Yucatán Peninsula and Central America, where Maya cities and archaeological sites are marked as points across the terrain. Those marks make the map a record of a civilisation whose heartland lies in these lands, and national borders place that history within the modern countries that now hold it. The 1980s printing style and the travel-guide framing tie the piece to an era when vintage maps were prized as both navigation and story.

Made for the Turning Hand

A mug is held and turned, so the map reveals itself in pieces as the cup travels from table to lip. The gold border frames the view each time it rotates into sight, and the Yucatán sits where the hand naturally comes to rest. It is a fitting way to spend a slow morning with a country's ancient geography, one sip at a time.

Accent ceramic mugs with a glossy white exterior and a colored interior & handle. Offered in 11 oz (≈330 ml) and 15 oz (≈440 ml), these mugs pair strong visual contrast with everyday durability — lead- and BPA-free.

Bright interiors and matching handles add a crisp pop of color to classic white ceramic. The glossy glaze gives prints a smooth backdrop while the colored inside creates an instant focal point on any table or shelf.

Available in multiple accent colors, these mugs keep a familiar C-shaped handle and a comfortable mouth for sipping. They’re designed to be both decorative and practical, holding up to daily routines without fuss.

  • Material: white ceramic body with colored interior and handle; glossy finish.
  • Sizes: 11 oz (≈330 ml) and 15 oz (≈440 ml) to match different serving needs.
  • Design: high-contrast interior brings vivid attention to your chosen colorway.
  • Safety: lead- and BPA-free, suitable for everyday hot beverages.
  • Function: classic C-handle for secure holding and easy lifting.

These accent mugs are ideal for daily coffee, tea, and cocoa. The colored interior makes them easy to identify in shared kitchens and gives a little designer touch to a breakfast nook.

  1. Everyday use: comfortable for morning routines and built to fit in most cupboards and cupholders.
  2. Office-ready: stand out on a desk without being flashy — useful for communal spaces or personal mugs.
  3. Pairing: mix and match interior colors across sets for a coordinated but lively collection.

Tip: darker interior colors hide light staining better over time; lighter colors show contrast with froth and cream.

These mugs are dishwasher- and microwave-safe, but gentle handling prolongs the finish. Use the top rack for dishwashing and avoid harsh scrubbing pads to keep the glossy surface and color bright.

For best long-term results, hand-wash with mild soap and a soft sponge when possible. Avoid soaking in aggressive detergents and don’t microwave empty mugs.

Two sizes available: 11 oz (approx. 330 ml) and 15 oz (approx. 440 ml). The smaller size fits classic morning pours; the larger one gives space for milk, foam, or an extra-long pour.
