PA-233 1948 (Pennsylvania) Coffee Mug Design

This coffee mug showcases a piece of Pennsylvania history with its striking design. The artwork prominently features the iconic PA-233 route shield, a visual emblem of a specific state highway within the Commonwealth.

The Keystone State Symbol

The central element is the keystone-shaped shield, a clear nod to Pennsylvania's nickname, the "Keystone State." This design element directly symbolizes the state's central and pivotal role in American history and geography. The use of this keystone shape immediately connects the mug to Pennsylvania.

Vintage Aesthetics

The "1948" designation adds a layer of historical significance to the design. This refers to the era in which a specific style of highway signage was in use. The design captures the look of the route shield from that period, giving it a vintage feel and appealing to those interested in road sign history.

Functionality and Symbolism Combined

The design effectively blends visual function with state pride. It presents a historical road marker, but also is aesthetically pleasing by reflecting the character of Pennsylvania, its roads, and its past, making the mug more than just a drinking vessel but a conversation piece for those who appreciate history and design.

Sturdy white ceramic mugs available in 11 oz (β‰ˆ330 ml) and 15 oz (β‰ˆ440 ml), with a glossy finish and comfortable C-handle β€” 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 β€” suitable for everyday drinking.

  • Material: white ceramic with a glossy glaze for bright, clear prints.
  • Sizes: 11 oz (β‰ˆ330 ml) and 15 oz (β‰ˆ440 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 β€” 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.
