Bring out your personality with vintage cups and mugs
Nothing beats a steaming cup of your favourite hot drink – and vintage mugs are sure to make every sip a little bit sweeter. When making dishware choices to finish off your home decor, it’s important to keep in mind that each vintage cup reflects your personality to those around you. Thus, nailing the right kind of vintage tea set and vintage coffee cups is an essential part of highlighting your unique sense of style.
When it’s been too long since your last casual catch-up, inviting friends over is made better by the sight of charming vintage tea cups – especially when they’re cleverly matched with an enchanting vintage tea pot. Whether your heart beats for matching vintage mugs or playful pairings that bring out the best in each unique retro mug, gathering around the coffee table feels like a treat with charming vintage tea cups in tow.
Franckly is here to make your search easier than ever with a hand-picked selection of effortlessly cosy vintage coffee mugs and timelessly stylish vintage tea cups. Ranging from fun-loving vintage Moomin products to the very best vintage mugs from Iittala and Arabia, our pre-owned gems are guaranteed to make your table setting come alive.
Finish off the set with time-honoured classics
Easy to spot thanks to its distinctively long handle, the Ego cup by Iittala has enchanted design lovers ever since its introduction in 1998. Designed by Stefan Lindfors, the intriguing shape of the stackable Ego cup is unlike any other, as its play on balance and gravity is sure to make you look twice. Especially after being discontinued in 2014, the well-proportioned Ego range – including the Ego coffee cup, Ego breakfast cup and Ego espresso cup, along with their respective saucers – has become a sought-after dishware favourite.
Designed by Ulla Procopé for Arabia, the Ruska tableware collection has made a long-lasting impact on the Finnish design landscape. After arousing great interest at the Milan Triennial in 1960 with its initial pieces, the uniquely stylish Ruska series expanded to around 40 items in the 1960s and 1970s. Containing the likes of the Ruska coffee cup and Ruska tea cup, the endearingly earthy appearance of Arabia’s Ruska stoneware range is thanks to its mottled brown glaze, which gives each piece an individual, artisanal appearance – guaranteeing that no two items in Arabia’s Ruska line are alike.
There’s a vintage cup for every moment
We doubt anyone loves wake-up calls at the crack of dawn, but vintage coffee mugs have a way of making early mornings easier – combining timeless aesthetics with a welcome dose of caffeine. Whether you’re on the lookout for a vintage tea set for entertaining or the perfect retro cup to treat yourself, you’re bound to find refined vintage tea cups and endearing vintage mugs in a wide range of colours, shapes and sizes.
With a little help from Franckly, it’s easy to refresh your vintage cup selection according to the season. While springtime calls for vintage tea cups in vibrant colours, long summer days invite you to take your favourite vintage tea set outdoors to bask under the sun. When it's time to bring some festive cheer to your home, there’s nothing quite like vintage mugs in warm hues to boost the holiday mood.
Take your pick from unique retro finds
No matter where you place your carefully chosen vintage coffee cups, they’re guaranteed to attract attention in the best of ways. These pre-owned gems aren’t only meant for the kitchen cabinet – showcase your most treasured vintage coffee mugs in a charming used kitchen cart at the heart of the home or a beautiful retro cabinet in the dining room.
