The Standard series from 1616 / arita japan exemplifies designer Teruhiro Yanagihara's philosophy of versatile, functional design. Drawing on Arita's traditional stone-clay technique with a refined composition, the mug is made from high-density clay that achieves exceptional strength and heat resistance.

Available in glazed white and matte gray, the latter derives its distinctive tone from a special agent added to the clay, eliminating the need for glaze while maintaining stain resistance.
