Big barrel mug from Utah
I started making a version of these barrel mugs during my four-year apprenticeship for Mark Hewitt in North Carolina. This pot came out of a gas soda kiln at Utah State University. I kept it because I really liked the flashed soda surface.
The glaze on the inside is made from Lake Bonneville clay sediment I collected nearby at Hyrum Dam.
It is a scientific fact that these barrel mugs keep your tea or coffee hotter than other shaped of mugs. The generous belly holds a lot of liquid and that keeps it hot longer. This one has a particularly big belly. It is voluminous.

Dimensions: Approximately 5” tall x 5” wide

My pots are microwave, dishwasher and oven safe. I make them with stoneware clay and fire until they’re vitrified, around 2350°F.
I ship with USPS and UPS and send tracking information after sending each order.
I ship internationally; it’s no problem, but it may require a little extra postage. It’s hard to estimate as it changes from country to country. For these international orders, I will contact you if there is a discrepancy between what you pay and the actual cost.
