Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Corner Perch, a bustling café in Cardiff, decided to upgrade from their standard white crockery. They wanted mugs that would reflect their premium, locally-sourced ethos and look great on their customers' Instagram feeds.
"We noticed an immediate difference. Our customers constantly comment on how lovely the mugs feel and the colour just pops in photos. It’s a small detail that has made a huge difference to our presentation and overall vibe."
Megan Davies – Owner, The Corner Perch

Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon delivery, unpack your mugs carefully and give them a quick check for any damage during transit.
- Before the first use, run them through a dishwasher cycle or wash by hand in warm, soapy water.
- Avoid using harsh metal scourers or abrasive powders, as these can scratch the beautiful glazed surface.
- When storing, stack them carefully to avoid chipping the rims. Using shelf liners can provide extra protection.
Keeping It Going
- These mugs are fully commercial dishwasher safe, making cleanup a breeze.
- For stubborn tea or coffee stains that may build up over time, a soak in a non-abrasive cleaning solution will lift them easily.
- While very durable, try to avoid extreme temperature shocks, like taking a mug from a freezer directly into boiling water.
- Regularly check for any chips or cracks, particularly around the rim, and remove any damaged items from service to ensure customer safety.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these mugs sold individually or in a set?
A: These Churchill mugs are supplied in a box of 12, which is ideal for kitting out a commercial establishment or ensuring you have plenty of stock.
Q: Is the colour exactly the same on every mug?
A: Due to the reactive glazing process which creates the deep colour, each mug has a unique finish with very slight, subtle variations. This is a deliberate design feature that adds to their artisan charm.
Q: What exactly is 'vitrified ceramic'?
A: It's a process where the ceramic is fired at an extremely high temperature. This makes the mug non-porous, incredibly durable, and highly resistant to chipping, staining, and cracking.
Q: What's the capacity in simple terms?
A: The 340ml capacity is about 12 fluid ounces. It’s a great, generous size for a standard latte or cappuccino.

Q: How robust are they in a commercial dishwasher?
A: They are designed specifically for commercial use and are completely safe for high-temperature commercial dishwashers.
Q: Will the beautiful blue colour fade over time with washing?
A: No, the reactive glaze is fused into the ceramic itself. The vibrant sapphire blue colour is exceptionally durable and resistant to fading, even with constant washing.

A: This professional range is proudly manufactured in the United Kingdom, ensuring the highest standards of production and quality control.

Ever wondered what makes some crockery chip at the slightest knock, while others seem indestructible? The secret is often 'vitrification'. Think of it like this: during firing in the kiln, the ceramic clay is heated to such a high temperature that it becomes non-porous and almost glass-like. This process fuses the clay particles tightly together, making the final Churchill DR673 mug incredibly strong and resistant to absorbing moisture, which is a common cause of cracking and crazing. In simple terms, it's the invisible armour that makes it tough enough to handle the daily hustle of a commercial kitchen, from the dishwasher to the table, time and time again.
