Description
A Mug Made for Everyday Rituals
The Blomus PILAR Mug brings together simple contemporary form, tactile ceramic and a calm palette designed for everyday coffee and tea.
With a 250 ml capacity, it is an easy size for morning coffee, tea, a cappuccino or a smaller filter coffee, making it a versatile part of the everyday table.
Designed by Nina Thöming
PILAR was designed by Nina Thöming, whose work for Blomus combines clear forms with a softer, more inviting sense of proportion.
The mug is deliberately understated, allowing the shape, ceramic finish and colour to provide the character rather than relying on unnecessary decorative detail.
250 ml Capacity
The PILAR Mug holds approximately 250 ml, giving it practical proportions for everyday hot drinks without feeling oversized.
It works naturally for coffee, tea and smaller milk-based drinks, whether used at breakfast, during the working day or as part of an afternoon coffee setting.
High-Quality Stoneware
The PILAR collection is made from high-quality stoneware, a durable ceramic material fired at high temperatures for everyday use.
The glazed surface helps make the mug suitable for regular use, while the natural qualities of the ceramic mean subtle variations in colour and surface can occur from piece to piece.
Matt and Glossy Surface Contrast
PILAR is characterised by a subtle contrast between its softer exterior finish and glazed interior surface, giving the mug greater depth without making the design feel decorative or overworked.
The result is a piece that feels tactile in the hand while remaining easy to integrate into modern and more traditional table settings.
Four Colours at RB12
RB12 offers the Blomus PILAR Mug in Agave Green, Mirage Grey, Moonbeam and Pewter.
Use a single colour for a more coordinated table, or mix different PILAR shades together for a softer, collected look across breakfast, coffee and dinner settings.
Designed to Mix Across the PILAR Collection
The PILAR Mug forms part of a wider tableware collection that includes plates, bowls, cups and other dining pieces designed to work together.
Repeating the same colour across the collection creates a calmer, more unified setting, while mixing shades introduces contrast without losing the consistency of the underlying design language.
Dishwasher and Microwave Safe
PILAR is designed for everyday practicality as well as appearance. The mug is dishwasher-safe for easy cleaning and microwave-safe when reheating drinks.
This makes it a practical choice for regular use rather than a piece reserved only for occasional table settings.
Naturally Individual
Because PILAR is made from ceramic, slight differences in tone, shading and surface are part of the natural character of the material.
These subtle variations mean individual pieces may not appear completely identical and should be considered part of the finished character rather than a defect.
A Calm Addition to the Coffee Table
The reduced shape and muted colour palette make PILAR particularly easy to combine with timber, stone, stainless steel and other contemporary kitchen and dining materials.
Whether used as a single favourite mug or as part of a complete tableware setting, it brings a quieter and more considered feel to everyday drinks.
