Sophie Conran by Portmeirion 12-1/2-Ounce Mugs, Set of 4, White Feature
- Set of 4 Sophie Conran by Portmeirion mugs; 12-1/2-ounce capacity

These simple, beautiful, and functional mugs are part of an entire tableware and bakeware collection designed by Sophie Conran, an English food writer with her own gourmet pie company. Conran infuses her namesake tableware with a flowing organic nature and tactile expression, as evidenced by the ridges and dipped rims that recall handcrafted pottery. Made of porcelain expressly for Portmeirion, the collection comes in glossy white with select pieces available in cool blue celadon and a creamy biscuit color.
Each of these four mugs, with a capacity of 12-1/2 ounces, is formed as a slightly uneven cone, with a narrow base and straight sides that taper outward. A traditional ear-shaped handle adds a nice expression to these rustic yet modern mugs. Quite durable and chip-resistant, the mugs may be used to warm beverages in the microwave (or oven, if desired), and freeze iced coffee for later drinking. After use, the mugs slip into the dishwasher for easy clean-up. The set makes a great gift for those who appreciate life's simple pleasures. --Ann Bieri
