Tankard

• Origin: Handmade in Nottinghamshire, UK

• Material: Durable, food-safe porcelain ceramic

• Dimensions: 12cm (H) x 10.5cm (W)

• Capacity: 568ml (One Full Pint)

• Care: Microwave & Dishwasher Safe

• Heritage Profile: Designed with a classic, ornate handle and a robust body, this tankard stands at 12cm high and 10.5cm wide (16cm including the handle).

• The Slip-Cast Method: Individually cast in our Nottinghamshire studio using liquid porcelain clay, ensuring that the intricate details of the ornate design remain crisp and defined.

• Double-Fired Durability: Following an initial firing, each tankard is hand-glazed and fired a second time at high temperatures. This process ensures a vitrified, rock-hard finish where the glaze flows uniquely over the textured surface.

• A True One-of-a-Kind: Because every piece is glazed by hand, no two tankards are identical. Your piece is a singular work of functional art, proudly handmade in Newark-on-Trent, England.

• The Full Pint: With a generous 568ml (one pint) capacity, this is the ultimate vessel for ales, stouts, or a large serving of your favorite cider.

• Everyday Practicality: We believe tradition should be effortless. Made from premium porcelain clay, this tankard is microwave and dishwasher safe, offering the durability required for modern use.

• Tactile Experience: The weight and balance of the ornate handle are engineered for a comfortable, secure grip, making every sip a sensory experience.

At Pitcairn Ceramics, we engineer our stoneware for the rigors of daily life. To ensure your pieces remain in peak condition for years to come, please follow these guidelines:

Everyday Use

• Dishwasher & Microwave Safe: All of our handmade ceramic food and drink items are designed to be both dishwasher and microwave safe.

• Remove Accessories: Before cleaning or microwaving, please remove any non-ceramic components, such as easy-pour spouts, cork stoppers, or pump attachments.

• Thermal Note: As with all high-quality ceramics, items and handles may become hot during microwave use. Please use caution when handling.

Maintenance & Safety

• Handmade Character: While our ceramics are durable, they are still a handcrafted product. Avoid extreme thermal shock (moving a piece directly from a cold refrigerator into a hot oven).

• Inspection: We recommend periodically inspecting your ceramics. If an item becomes chipped, cracked, or damaged in any way, please discontinue use immediately to ensure safety.
