USA - California and Nevada 2 (1974) - Mug Design

This design is a 1974 map of California and Nevada, the second in its series, printed as a clean cartographic sheet where every state line and mountain range is drawn with precision.

Visual Elements & Composition

The two states fill the frame, with California's long coastline running down the left and Nevada's blocky eastern edge cutting across the right. The border between them is a sharp, nearly straight line, and that geometry dominates the layout. Thin contour and terrain markings give the land weight without crowding the page, and the place names are set small so the eye moves across the map rather than stopping on any single label. The white base lets the linework read crisply.

Meaning & Symbolism

The two states share a region defined as much by elevation as by politics. The Sierra Nevada forms the spine between the wet Pacific side and the arid Great Basin, so a map of these two states is really a map of a dramatic shift in landscape. The 1974 date places the sheet in an era when printed maps were still the everyday way to plan a road trip, and the numbered title marks it as one part of a larger set.

Designed for the Hand

A map on a mug is never seen all at once. You turn it with your fingers as you drink, so the coastline slides into view, then the border, then the desert, one slow rotation at a time. That turning is what makes the artwork work on this object: the map is always partly hidden and gradually revealed, like a route you only understand by travelling it. It makes a cheeky Valentine's gift for anyone whose heart is split between the coast and the desert.

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.
