Bear Orchard Stoneware Drinkware

This green ceramic cup might be my favorite in the house.

I bought this cup for my daughter because she loves bears, and now she uses it for every drink. The bear face is cheerful without being childish, and the apple motifs around the side are painted neatly. It has held up through daily use and still looks bright, and the ceramic feels thick enough to keep her tea warm while she does homework. I'm thinking about picking up a second one so I have my own.

The brown and green together look lovely, and the cup has a nice weight to it. My only small note is that the green reads a bit darker in person than on screen, though it still looks fine.

The white glaze is really pretty. The cup runs smaller than I pictured.

The bear design is adorable and the green glaze looks just like the photos. I've been using the cup for my afternoon tea and it keeps the drink warm longer than my other mugs. The hand-painted apples are a sweet touch. My only issue is that the paint on the bear's ear looks slightly uneven up close, though it hasn't stopped me from reaching for it every day.

This works for both my morning coffee and water by the bed. I find the cup a little small for a full mug of tea, and I wish it held more.

I love the cup and the green glaze, and the bear shape is easy to hold. The size is right for tea and it has been through the microwave several times without any trouble.

The little bear face makes me smile every morning.

Quality is clearly good here, and the underglaze finish means the apple pattern won't rub off. I was unsure about the green, and now it's my favorite color in the cupboard.

The glaze on this cup is beautiful, and the painted apples have held up through weeks of washing. It's sturdy, comfortable to hold, and the bear face is subtle enough for my kitchen. Easily my favorite piece of drinkware.

I use this cup for coffee every morning and it does everything I need. The rim is smooth, and the ceramic keeps my coffee hot while I answer emails. It has gone through the microwave and the sink without fading, and the bear ears are easy to grip, which I didn't expect to matter. After a month it still looks new.

I love the soft green color on this cup.

The cup has become my default for hot drinks through the whole week. The ceramic wall is thick, so my tea stays warm longer than it did in my old glass mug. The surface feels smooth and pleasant to hold. The hand-painted apples are a nice detail that still makes me look twice.

I wanted a cheerful cup for my desk, and this one is it. The bear face is sweet and the painted apples are a nice detail. It's comfortable to sip from all morning.

The green glaze is even prettier in person.

This cup is my favorite and it never makes it back into the cabinet after washing. The bear ears are a nice detail and the glaze has held up well.

I have a soft spot for bear themed things, so this cup caught my eye right away. The apple motifs are hand painted, and the colors are warm without being loud. It sits comfortably in my hand, the rim is smooth against my mouth, and I use it for tea in the afternoon and coffee on weekends. Even my husband, who never notices drinkware, mentioned how much he likes it, and it has held up without any fading.

My three year old grabbed this cup the moment it arrived and now insists on it for milk. It's sturdy enough for small hands, and she loves the green best. I've washed it constantly and the colors still look bright.
