DESCRIPTION

This ceramic Travel Cup makes eco-friendly living easy. Whether it’s your morning coffee on the way to work, a second cup at your desk, or a slow weekend walk, you’ll find a ceramic travel mug that can go where you do.

Sandy is one of those pieces that feels even better in real life. Simple, earthy, and quietly beautiful, this reusable coffee cup pairs a soft speckled cream glaze with a natural sandy clay base. The contrast between the smooth glazed surface and raw ceramic texture gives it a calm, grounding feel. It's subtle enough for everyday use, but special enough to make your coffee ritual feel more considered.

Sandy Ceramic Travel Cup

$35.00 AUD

Customers love this ceramic travel cup, calling it "perfect" for coffee and praising its comfortable feel and attractive design. The cup fits car holders and receives compliments from baristas. However, some note it can get hot to hold without a heat band, doesn't retain heat well, and sizing can be inconsistent. A few were disappointed with appearance vs photos.

Perfect cup for my morning coffee. So much nicer to drink out of than previous travel mugs.
Perfect size, feels nice in your hand and great to drink from.
The ridges feel so lovely to hold and help with grip. Still going strong after several years!

Perfect for the kids

Kids fit so well and my kids love the designs!

Mystery Cup

I participated in the mystery cup event. I was pleasantly suprised by the colour I got. I seriously love these cups as I feel very stylish and get many comments. I even get comments on the silicone lid they come with. Always amazes me how they get the size right for the lid to fit on so snug.

Because they have been fired to such a high temperature, the cup can be used in the microwave and the dishwasher. Although, they are so stain resistant, a quick wash over in the think leaves then instantly clean.

I do iced latter in them, but also hot. However, I must warn, it doesnt retain heat for long.

A Daily Coffee Ritual Made Better

I absolutely love this coffee cup! Not only is it beautifully designed, but it’s also incredibly practical and comfortable to hold. The quality feels fantastic, and the silicone lid fits securely without affecting the drinking experience. It keeps my coffee enjoyable on the go and has quickly become my favourite daily cup. The handcrafted finish and colours are stunning, making every coffee feel a little more special. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a stylish, sustainable, and well-made reusable cup.

Perfect everyday coffee cup

I’ve been using this cup daily and I love it. It’s the perfect size to take anywhere, the design is so beautiful, and I love that I’m no longer wasting takeaway cups at cafes. I’ll definitely be buying more in every colour!

Thank you so much for your lovely review! We're thrilled you love your travel cup and appreciate your support. Can't wait to see you in more colours!

Beautiful cup and great quality

Beautiful cup and excellent quality. I ordered the small as I usually drink a small coffee, but I didn't realise it wouldn't quite fit the size I make at home (definitely my fault for not checking the measurements). I also have the iced coffee mug, which I love, but unfortunately it doesn't fit in my car's cup holder. Overall, I'm really happy with both products - I'Il just order a size up next time to get that perfect in-between fit.

Thank you for your lovely review. We're thrilled to hear that you love the cup and find the quality to be excellent. We will soon be launching a new style 16oz travel cup that has been redesigned specifically to fit car cup holders. We appreciate your support and hope you continue to enjoy our products. Many thanks, PFTP Team

Purchased coral cup

I am very particular about my coffee, and I finally found a cup that doesn't ruin the taste! It keeps my latte hot and the outer shell stays cool to the touch. The lid is super tight, so I can enjoy my coffee without worrying about leaks. It feels luxurious, looks great, and I love that I’m not using disposable cups anymore.

This is so lovely to hear — thank you! We’re so glad you’re enjoying your coffee just as it should be, with no compromise on taste ☕️

Very lovely mug

I bought a second one. I have a total of 4 mugs now and I’m satisfied with their cuteness and functionality :)

Thank you for your kind words! We love that you’ve built your collection with us and are enjoying both the beauty and functionality

The only cup to use for coffees

I absolutely love our Pottery for the Planet cups. They are well made, here in Australia, by a local small business. My wife and I have the 6oz cups and wouldn’t use anything else. The perfect size for a tasty coffee, every time. You won’t be disappointed.

So happy to hear how much you love our cups Chris! Local quality is the way to go.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size should I choose for my coffee order?

A rough guide: the 4oz Piccolo suits an espresso or piccolo, the 6oz works for a small flat white or strong coffee, the 8oz covers most standard cafe orders and is the most popular size, and the 12oz suits larger drinks, teas, or anyone who likes more in their cup. If you are unsure, the 8oz is the safe default. The 16oz Iced Coffee Cup is a separate product designed specifically for cold drinks.

Will my cup look exactly like the photo?

No two cups are identical. Each one is handmade and glazed individually, so the glaze colour, depth, and markings on your cup will be similar to the photo but will have its own natural variation. That variation is what makes every piece one of a kind and worth keeping. Specifications are also approximate for the same reason.

Does the cup come with a lid?

Yes, every Travel Cup comes with a 100% silicone lid included. Lids come in cream, black or white depending on the glaze. If you want a lid in a different colour, or a spare, replacement lids are available separately in the Accessories collection in three sizes - Small (4oz), Regular (6oz/8oz/12oz), and Large (16oz).

Will it fit in my car or pram cup holder?

Yes, Travel Cups are designed to fit most standard car and pram cup holders. Because every cup is handmade, there is slight variation in width between pieces, so specifications are approximate. If your cup holder is on the narrower side, the 4oz and 6oz sizes are the most likely to fit comfortably.

How do I care for my cup?

Our ceramic Travel Cups are dishwasher safe, though hand washing will help preserve the glaze and extend the life of the piece over time. Hand wash the silicone lid to keep it in good shape. Ceramic is durable but will crack if knocked or dropped, so handle it with a bit of care. Avoid sudden temperature changes like pouring boiling water into a cold cup straight from the fridge.
