NY-913Q (New York) (Road Sign) White Coffee Mug: Design Description

The design of this coffee mug cleverly captures the essence of NY 913Q, a unique piece of New York's hidden road network. The artwork directly mirrors the reality of this unsigned route: a visual representation focused on direction and connectivity, rather than a specific road marker.

Artwork and Visual Elements

The mug's primary visual element is a depiction of directional signage, reminiscent of what a driver would actually see when traversing the short Bear Street connector in Syracuse. Instead of a direct "NY 913Q" marker, the design emphasizes the connecting routes: the Interstate highways (I-81 and I-690) and New York State Route 370. This reflects NY 913Q's function: it's a link, and its significance is in facilitating movement between these major roadways. The layout and fonts used mimic the style of official road signage, establishing a clear and familiar visual language.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design implicitly acknowledges the unsung heroes of infrastructure. It symbolizes the often-overlooked network of administrative routes that quietly ensure the efficient flow of traffic. The absence of a dedicated NY 913Q sign on the artwork, coupled with the focus on the surrounding routes, speaks to the utilitarian, behind-the-scenes nature of these reference routes. This mug is not just a novelty item; it is a subtle nod to the complex system of roads that keeps the wheels of the state turning, albeit without fanfare.

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.
