Selecting the Perfect Mug

Mug Rack full of colorful ceramic mugs

Not all mugs are created equally! One thing’s for sure, when you select an Emerson Creek mug, you’re choosing a beautifully hand painted or hand glazed piece of functional art that’s made of nontoxic, lead-safe, cadmium-safe clay, paint, and glaze.

We’ve got a variety of mug styles to choose from. Why? Because everybody has a personal preference – and they’re not all alike! Some like a taller mug with a large handle while others might enjoy a smaller mug with a more rounded handle.

Take a look at our selection of mugs, and choose for yourself which one you think is the best!
