Designed with lattes in mind. A slightly taller, slimmer take on our classic Mugs, with room for a generous pour of steamed milk.

Colour: Desert Taupesemi-matte

Pearl White is our only glossy glaze. Every other colour is semi-matte, so the finish follows the colour and there is nothing separate to choose.

Reviews Summary
Customers say these mugs are the perfect size for coffee, tea, and hot beverages. They appreciate the comfortable weight and feel in their hands, noting the smooth matte finish and pleasant texture. The mugs fit well for people with smaller hands or those preferring smaller portions. Users find they keep beverages hot longer due to their thick walls. Many praise the craftsmanship and quality, describing them as well-made and beautiful. The handles are comfortable and well-designed. Several customers prefer this smaller size over larger alternatives and mention they stack nicely for storage. Common feedback includes requests for more color options beyond the current white finish.

    Small Mugs

    jolies, mais j’aurais aimé les acheter dans la même couleur que mon service de vaisselle. Malheureusement, elles n’étaient pas disponibles.

    Uneven speckled

    I love fable dishes but am disappointed with the small speckled mugs. Very uneven. I know they are handmade but I have the speckled in my small plates and they are so much more speckled and even.

    The speckles were very sparse.

    On the inside it’s like they all landed on the bottom of the cup.

    They should also make these cups in a 10 oz size.

    8 oz is a bit small.

    Loved he small mugs!

    These are perfect for my 10oz Keurig + 2 ounces of milk. The colour is beauriful - a light blue wash over stone that looks very organic, but light.

    Pleasantly surprised

    Have recently been buying cable because the quality and customer service has been excellent, even if the price tag is a little higher. These mugs, both and size and color are surprisingly versatile. I was looking for something between a massive coffee mug and an espresso cup and these fit perfectly. The green color is a change of pace, but also not so much of an eyesore that you regret it. Have considered supplementing my entire cabinet with a similar green to contrast the white.

Worth the wait.

How does pre-order work?

Our pieces are made by makers around the world, with a level of care that can’t be rushed. Pre-ordering reserves yours from the next batch, which is often already finished and on its way to our warehouse.

When will my pre-order ship?

Your estimated ship date reflects when the next batch is expected to arrive at our warehouse, plus time for us to inspect each piece and pack it up for you. You’ll see the date on this page once you’ve chosen your options. See the full list here.

What if I order in-stock
and pre-order items?

You can choose at checkout:

  • Ship in-stock items before pre-order items: Your in-stock items head out right away, and your pre-ordered pieces follow once they arrive.
  • Ship all items together: Everything goes out in one delivery, on the date shown at checkout.

When am I charged,
and can I cancel?

You’ll be charged when you place your pre-order, which secures your spot. If you decide you’d rather not wait, reach out to us anytime before it ships for a full refund.
