Rank flag of Schout-bij-nacht for the Royal Netherlands Navy (Netherlands) White Coffee Mug

The rank flag of a Schout bij nacht, the Royal Netherlands Navy's equivalent of a Rear Admiral, built on the Dutch national tricolour with two white stars.

Visual Elements & Composition

Three horizontal stripes of red, white and blue run the full width of the rectangle, with red taking the largest share. Two white six-pointed stars sit side by side inside the red band, close to the hoist edge. The stars are set with one point facing upward, a detail fixed by post-war specifications. The flat vector style keeps the stripes and stars crisp and evenly weighted.

Meaning & Symbolism

The two stars mark this rank, and the tricolour ties it to the Dutch navy's national identity. The title itself is Dutch for a rear admiral, literally rendered as a night scout or sheriff at night. The current set of rank flags was adopted by Order in Council on 31 August 1956, and the design continues the naval tradition that began with it.

Seen on the Mug

A mug turns the flag around a curved surface, so the stripes wrap the cup and the pair of stars slides into view as it is rotated. Held in the hand, the two stars read clearly from the handle side and close up, which gives the tricolour a steady rhythm.

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.
