Bright colourful mugs printed by dye sublimation onto the highest quality mugs. Dye sublimation results in the dye penetrating the top surface of the mug, leaving a glossy finish (indistinguishable from a 'fired' mug) that is fully dishwasher-proof.

Why not add a matching coaster for an additional £3?
