USA - New England 1 (1987) - Ceramic Mug Design

This design is a map of New England, the compact six-state corner of the northeastern United States, rendered as one continuous cartographic image dated 1987.

Visual Elements & Composition

The map fills the surface, so its coastline does the work of the composition. Land and water are set against the white base, and the ragged Atlantic edge, with its harbours and inlets, carries the eye from one end of the region to the other. Nothing sits outside the map's border, which keeps the layout clean and lets the geography speak without decoration. The "1" in the name marks it as the first in a series, and the 1987 date anchors it in time.

Meaning & Symbolism

A map of New England is a statement about place. The region's shape, with its crowded states and long shoreline, reflects centuries of coastal trade, fishing towns and inland farmland pressed up against the sea. Printing that geography in 1987 turned an old idea of the region into a keepsake, a way of saying where home sits on the edge of the continent. Maps like this were made to be studied, traced with a finger and argued over, and the design keeps that habit of close looking.

On the Ceramic Mug

A mug is turned in the hand, so the map arrives in pieces. Each turn brings a new stretch of coastline around the curve, the way a traveller reads a route one road at a time. Anyone who has driven those coastal roads will find their way across the region before the first sip. The design suits a mug because it rewards the slow, repeated attention that a morning cup invites.

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.
