All our ceramics are handmade and colours, brush strokes and glaze variations may vary from the photos shown ~ this is not considered a fault but is part of the beauty of these glazes and the handcrafted ceramics process.

These special leopard cups are meticulously hand-painted by Kim with several layers of 3 different colours to create this ever popular animal print. Each one will be slightly different! Made from slightly speckled, Australian stoneware clay, entirely crafted by hand in our Noosa studio.

Heat sleeves available separately if required (not included).

This cup measures approx. 6oz (approx 175ml), which is a small cup size most closely replicating an in-house ceramic cup & saucer. Great for 3/4 latte, cappuccino & flat white. For those who like their coffees stronger and less milky. Also available in 12oz and 8oz.

    Care instructions

    Yes, our cups are dishwasher safe, with the exception of gold lustre such as our Eclipse cups.
    Our lids and sleeves are made from non-toxic, 100% silicone. They are non-porous, antibacterial and stain & odour resistant and are also dishwasher safe on the top rack.

    If your cup has a silicone sleeve, remove before washing. After drying, flip your cup upside down and stretch the sleeve back over the cup, slowly teasing it upwards until you are happy with the position.

    Spare silicone sleeves and lids are available separately in our online shop if required.

    Gold lustre finishes (such as our Eclipse cups) are fired in the kiln for durability & food safety, however please note they are not dishwasher or ovenproof. Hand wash is recommended. DO NOT microwave lustre pieces as we use true gold!

    Please wash before use.

    Takeaway Cup FAQ

    Are the takeaway cups dishwasher safe?

    Yes, our cups are dishwasher safe, with the exception of gold lustre such as our Eclipse cups. 

    Our lids and sleeves are made from non-toxic, 100% silicone. They are non-porous, antibacterial and stain & odour resistant and are also dishwasher safe on the top rack. 

    Please see our Care instructions tab above for more information.

    Will the cup get too hot to hold?

    Ceramic cups take on the warmth of the liquid inside. Our 12oz cups come with a silicone heat sleeve which means if your coffee is made at the correct temperature (approx 65 degrees), you’ll be able to hold your cup. Please note that warmer drinks (or some coffees made too warm) may still be too hot to hold despite the heat sleeve. In this case, simply hold your cup like you would a regular paper takeaway cup ~ top and bottom.

    For our 8oz and 6oz sizes, we have chosen not to add a heat sleeve as it would cover up most of the cup. As per the above, if you are finding it too hot to hold, simply hold the cup top & bottom like you would a regular paper takeaway cup. Heat sleeves are available for purchase should you wish to add one to your 8oz or 6oz cup.

    Some of the external surfaces are unglazed. Will they stain?

    All our ceramics are fired to the highest stoneware temperatures, making them highly vitrified and stain resistant. Coffee and tea stains should come off easily when washed. Some substances may stain, mainly oily liquids, so best to avoid contact with those. To avoid scuff marks we recommend adding one of our waterproof pouches to keep your cup safe in your bag and your bag clean from minor spills. The pouch also hangs on your wrist if needed, freeing up your hands.

    Can I drink straight from the cup without the silicone lid, even if the top outside rim is not glazed?

    Absolutely. All our ceramics are very high fired which makes them highly vitrified and all our cups can be used without the lid.

    Unglazed surfaces are polished to be nice and smooth to the touch, and are stain resistant. We personally love the feel, however glazed surfaces can be a personal preference for some, in which case you may prefer to choose a takeaway cup with glazed upper rim such as Rockpool or Classic White.
