"Maskwa" is the Cree word for bear. In tribal tradition the animal is the most powerful and intelligent on land, and is a symbol of healing. The rich, warm design of these mugs display a maskwa paw print that will accent the outdoor décor of any dinner setting. Heavy-duty ceramic, dishwasher and microwave safe.
Set of two 16-oz. mugs.
Don't know what one reviewer is talking about -- these mugs are huge and heavy duty and high quality. The bear paw design is beautiful. The mug isl large enough to serve hearty portions of stew and also great for the hot chocolate or coffee fanatic who likes a large pour. We use ours for Irish coffee and hot buttered rum by the fire in winter. Guys love the size and heft and guests constantly comment about them and ask where we found them.
I purchased these along with the entire dining set but am not so enthused now that they have arrived. They are not for everyday use unless you're very careful as they are quite fragile. The mugs are equal to 2 regular coffee mugs but are great for hot chocolate.
