I was just ogling these on the Skandium website last night! Such lovely designs and colours.
I love these! I've been lucky enough to visit the factory and shop and have a few of their mugs.
Thanks for posting these, so inspiring. My current project is on Scandinavian (particularly Finnish) design and so these really help
How can I purchase one of these mugs from the US? I live in KY and I adore the Hometown sea mug.
