How big are the Ava Nord stoneware mugs?

The pair shown here is the 600ml size, which is more than a pint and suits a big latte or soup. The same listing has 180ml, 340ml and 470ml; the 340ml is the closest to an everyday tea mug.

Are the Ava Nord mugs dishwasher safe?

Yes. The listing says dishwasher, microwave and freezer safe.

Why do the two Ava Nord mugs look slightly different?

They have a reactive glaze, which pools and varies in the kiln. No two are identical, which is the point of the look.

Are the Ava Nord mugs a good Secret Santa gift?

Yes, if the budget allows. A pair can also be split into two presents, each boxed in tissue, which makes the set go further.

The 600ml shown here is a large mug for big lattes or soup; the 340ml is closer to an everyday tea mug.
