Theo Tea Mug with coaster by Francis Cayouette

The Theo tea mug is made of blackish-brown stoneware, in the same style as the simple, Scandinavian, clean lines of the teapot. The mug has a bamboo coaster, which adds a warm, tranquil touch. Avoid cup rings on the table with this sustainable, Asian bamboo coaster.
