The Le Creuset La Jardin Mug holds 350ml and is decorated with intricate floral designs from the garden-inspired La Jardin collection, making it a well-proportioned everyday mug that is attractive enough to leave out on display. At 350ml it sits in the range of a standard everyday mug, so it suits tea, filter coffee, hot chocolate or any other daily drink, unlike the smaller 200ml Cappuccino Mug in the same collection. Made from specialist stoneware in Thailand, the thick construction retains heat well and the glazed surface is scratch-resistant and easy to clean. It handles temperatures from -23°C to 260°C and is cleared for the oven, microwave, grill and dishwasher. As part of a seasonal range, it pairs with other La Jardin pieces and makes a considered gift for a Le Creuset collector.

Cleaning: Allow the mug to cool completely before washing. Wipe away any residue from the base and sides. If anything is stuck, fill the mug with warm, soapy water and leave it to soak for 15 to 20 minutes before washing as usual. Wash and dry by hand, or place in the dishwasher for a full cycle.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Question: How does this mug differ from the La Jardin 200ml Cappuccino Mug?
Answer: The main difference is size. The Cappuccino Mug holds 200ml and is designed for espresso-based drinks like cappuccino and flat white. This 350ml mug is more in line with a standard everyday mug and suits a wider range of drinks. Both are part of the La Jardin collection and can be used alongside each other, which makes them a good combination if you are buying a gift for someone who uses both types of cup.
Question: Can this mug be used on the hob?
Answer: No, like all Le Creuset stoneware, this mug is not suitable for direct hob use. It is designed for oven, grill and microwave use only and should not be placed on a gas, electric or induction hob. If you need something that works on the hob, Le Creuset's cast iron range would be worth exploring.
Question: Will the floral pattern fade with regular dishwasher use?
Answer: Le Creuset confirms this mug is dishwasher safe and the glaze is designed to withstand everyday conditions. As a general principle with decorative stoneware, hand washing over the long term tends to keep the finish and pattern looking their best, so if preserving the decoration is a priority, that is the safer option. The scratch-resistant glaze makes hand washing quick and straightforward.
Question: Will this mug feel noticeably heavier than a standard ceramic mug?
Answer: Yes, stoneware is denser than the thin ceramic used in many everyday mugs, so the Le Creuset La Jardin Mug will feel noticeably heavier when you pick it up. This is a function of the material quality and contributes to how well it retains heat, but it is a genuine difference that surprises some people. If someone in your household prefers a lightweight cup, it is worth knowing before buying.
