From the Tavern to the Modern Bar

This mug is incredibly versatile. Thanks to its robust and historic appearance, it is an ideal accessory for LARP, historical markets, and reenactment. It's perfectly suited for serving beer, mead, or simple water at any fantasy or medieval event. In the modern world, this type of mug is most famous for the Moscow Mule cocktail, for which it is absolutely ideal. Copper is an excellent conductor of cold, keeping your drink ice-cold for longer. Of course, you can also use it for any other cold beverage, from lemonade to iced tea.

Copper and Its Journey Through History

Copper is one of the first metals that humanity began to work with, and vessels made from it have been in use for millennia. Historically, they were valued not only for their beautiful appearance but also for their natural antimicrobial properties. Water stored in copper vessels was often considered purer and healthier. While this mug uses a stainless steel interior for modern hygiene and ease of maintenance, it carries this ancient legacy and the beauty of copper on its exterior.

Construction and Materials

The tankard is designed to be not only beautiful but also functional and durable.

• Construction: The core of the mug is made from durable, food-grade stainless steel, which does not react with drinks and is easy to clean.
• Outer Shell: The exterior is plated with pure copper and has a polished finish. The unique hammered look is created by hand, making each piece an original.
• Handle: The distinctive brass handle with its geometric shape provides a firm grip and completes the overall design.

Product Specifications:

• Material: Stainless Steel, Copper Plating, Brass Handle
• Capacity: Approx. 530 ml (18 fl oz)
• Height: Approx. 10 cm (4 inches)

Please Note: Due to the handmade nature of this item, the texture and exact shade of each piece may vary slightly.

How to Care For Your Mug

To keep your mug looking its best, please follow a few simple rules. Hand-wash only using a mild detergent and a soft sponge. Do not put it in the dishwasher, as harsh detergents could damage the copper surface. Over time, copper naturally darkens and develops a patina. If you wish to restore its original shine, you can polish the outside with a special copper polish or a mixture of lemon juice and salt.

Important Notice: This mug is intended for cold drinks only. Due to the high thermal conductivity of copper, pouring a hot beverage into it would create a serious risk of burning your lips and hands.
