Clive Coffee

Our newest custom project is coffee mugs for local roaster Clive Coffee. Contained within that fabulously understated packaging is some very delicious hand-roasted beans, and they needed an equally fabulous hand-crafted mug to match. You can purchase the mugs (2 color choices!) here, and don’t forget to pick up a bag or two while you’re at it – our studio varietal of choice is the Papua New Guinea.

In the meantime, watch this great little video Clive put together documenting the process:
