White Personalized Ceramic Desk Mug*

The White Personalized Ceramic Desk Mug is a great gift for any special occasion. It goes well as a gift for your groomsmen or for birthday parties and graduations, and it earns its keep every morning after that.
This is a 16oz ceramic mug built for a working surface rather than a cupboard. The wide integrated handle gives a firm grip, so the mug holds its contents in place when it is picked up one-handed over a keyboard, and the skid pad underneath adds traction to the base, which is the detail that matters on a glossy desk or a laminate conference table. Enjoy your beverage without worrying about any messy spills. At 5.5"H x 3.5"D it is a full-size desk mug, not a delicate teacup that needs a second trip to the kitchen by ten o'clock.
Personalization is engraved on the base of the cup, and that placement is the quiet part of the appeal. Nothing is printed across the front to fade, peel or clash with an office; the name is simply there, on the bottom, where the owner knows it and everyone else finds out when the mug is lifted. Up to 10 characters go on that single line, which is room for a first name, a nickname, a set of initials or a short title.
Small business owners can extend their brand appeal with this ceramic mug as a corporate branding tool. The company name can be engraved on the base, and the branded mugs then go out as a thank you to customers for their loyalty, or stay in the building as office mugs for the staff. For a wedding, a set engraved with each bridesmaid's or groomsman's name turns a thank you gift into something used daily for years.
Personalize it and you increase its sentimental value simply by having the recipient's name engraved on the base. Add your engraving text above, choose your quantity, and give a mug that comes back to the same desk every morning.

Which one should I choose
HansonEllis engraves more than one white ceramic mug, and the difference is capacity, whether it has a lid, and where the name ends up.
| White Personalized Ceramic Desk Mug | Choose it when the mug lives on a desk: 16oz, a wide handle for a firm grip, a skid pad that stops it sliding, and the name engraved on the base. |
|---|---|
| A white ceramic coffee mug with a push-on lid | Choose that one when the drink travels between meetings and a lid matters more than capacity. |
| A plain, unengraved ceramic mug | Choose that only for a break room; it will not carry the name that makes a mug a gift. |
For a desk that already has a mug ring on it, the White Personalized Ceramic Desk Mug is the one to send, with the recipient's name engraved on the base.

Questions shoppers ask about the White Personalized Ceramic Desk Mug
How big is the White Personalized Ceramic Desk Mug and how much does it hold?
It measures 5.5"H x 3.5"D and holds 16oz. It is a full-size desk mug rather than a small teacup.
Where is the personalization engraved?
On the base of the cup. Nothing is printed across the front of the mug, so the engraving does not compete with the plain white ceramic.
How many characters can I engrave?
Up to 10 characters on one line. That is room for a first name, a nickname, a set of initials or a short title such as Team Lead.
What keeps the mug from sliding or tipping on a desk?
A skid pad underneath adds traction to the base, and the wide integrated handle gives a firm grip, so the mug holds its contents in place.
Can I have my company name engraved for corporate gifts?
Yes. Small business owners use the mug as a branding tool with the company name engraved on the base, given to customers as a thank you or used as office mugs for staff.
Can I put a logo on the mug?
A logo is handled as a custom order. Email a vector file (.eps, .ai, .cdr, .pdf or .svg) or a high-resolution image to [email protected]; a logo setup fee applies and not every logo can be reproduced.
Can each mug have a different name?
Yes. Order the full quantity you need, then email your list of names to [email protected] after ordering so it can be matched to your order.
Can I see a proof before the mugs are engraved?
Proofs are optional and available on request for a $35-55 service fee per proof, and a proof adds extra days to production. Changes after a proof has been sent carry a $40 minimum updating fee, so check your 10 characters carefully before ordering.
Is there a minimum order, and do you offer bulk pricing?
There is no minimum order, so you can buy a single mug or one for every desk in the office. For bulk pricing, please contact [email protected].
How long does an engraved mug order take?
Standard production is 5 to 10 business days, then 2 to 5 days shipping in the US. Rush production is 3 to 5 days and expedite is 1 to 3 days. For a wedding, order 3 to 6 months ahead.
Do you ship engraved mugs outside the United States?
International shipping is by request. The cart calculates US shipping only and international orders cannot be rushed, so email [email protected] for a quote.
Can I return an engraved mug?
Personalized items are made to order and are final sale unless defective. Non-personalized mugs can be returned within 14 days. For help, call Customer Support at 310-878-9429.
