Bento cup

• Series: Bento
• Material: Stoneware
• Finish: matte/glossy
• Dimensions: 9.5 x 11 cm
• Capacity: 400 ml
• Color: beige, black
• Fired at nearly 1200°C
• With the hand-applied reactive glaze, two glazes react with each other, creating a unique color gradient. This makes every item one-of-a-kind.
• As this is a handmade natural product, small deviations in shape and color, as well as irregularities, are possible, which give the dinnerware its character.

To ensure you enjoy your dinnerware for a long time, we recommend gentle wash cycles with standard dishwasher tabs. We advise against using aggressive detergents with citrus additives.
Depending on the material of your cutlery, slight cutlery abrasion (cutlery marks) may occur. This can be easily removed with a cutlery cleaning agent. You can find the cleaning agent in almost any drugstore or supermarket.

The Bento Stoneware Mugs for Slow Living Enjoyment

Are you still searching for your very own special favorite mug? The Portofino Ceramica Bento Mug brings an understated, elegant look to your home, creating a pleasantly calm atmosphere.

A Touch of Wanderlust from Portugal

We believe in Slow Living and a conscious lifestyle. That's why, at Portofino Ceramica, every product is intended to carry its own story. Our Bento Mugs are hand-shaped and glazed in Portugal, bringing the tradition of Portuguese craftsmanship into your home. Complemented by a modern design, a timeless look is created that celebrates nature and its imperfections. Because of the reactive glazes and the handiwork, each mug has slight variations in shape and color, making it unique.

Robust Stoneware Mugs for Long-Lasting Quality

To ensure that it's not just the look of our Bento Mugs that impresses, but also their quality, they are formed from European stoneware. They are then fired at approx. 1200°C, glazed by hand, and fired again. The mugs are carefully inspected for quality after both the first and second firing processes. Thanks to the durable material, the high-quality glazes (compliant with EEC guidelines), and the high firing temperatures, our stoneware mugs are robust and chip-resistant. This allows you to safely put them in the microwave and dishwasher.

To ensure your Bento mug provides you with coffee and tea—or a beverage of your choice—for as long as possible, we recommend cleaning it on a gentle cycle with standard dishwasher tabs. You should keep aggressive detergents with citrus additives away from your mug.

Fair Prices for Fair Products

Our Slow Living philosophy stands for conscious and fair consumption. Therefore, it is important to us not only that high-quality products land in your home, but also that they are produced under sustainable and fair conditions. Our artisans in Portugal receive decent wages, and we use natural and sustainable materials—this is reflected in our prices. But we at Portofino Ceramica know: Those who recognize the value are happy to pay the price.
