6 cm high x 6 cm diameter

Listing shows 85 ml; HKLIVING spec reportedly 100 ml; realistic working pour about 70–85 ml
Uses

Reactive glaze moves and breaks during firing, so color, speckling and texture vary
Quality
Glaze variation is normal; pinholes, bare patches, crawls or chips are flaws
Dishwasher

Microwave
Microwave safe
Warning
Not suitable for professional or commercial dishwashers
Loading
Load so rims do not touch and avoid snug stacking

Normal cycle is enough; hand wash the pieces you want to keep glossy long-term

Reactive glaze color is integral and will not wash off like a printed pattern
Style
Psychedelic 70s styling with expressive shapes and textured surfaces
Styling
Use bold glazes as accents against plain linen or bare wood; mix with calmer earthy ceramics

Solar 70s-Style Ceramic Ristretto Cups Set Of 4: Choose this if you want a set of four small glazed stoneware ristretto cups — each holding 85 ml (2.87 fl. oz), about 6 cm (2.5 inches) tall by 6 cm (2.25 inches) in diameter — for short espresso-style servings. It suits fans of a 70s-inspired look, with textured surfaces, expressive shapes, and assorted multicolor glazes applied by hand so each piece is unique. Note that because the reactive glaze is hand-applied, colors may vary from one cup to another, and the assorted designs mean pieces will not match; the cups are dishwasher safe.[3]Dusk Stripes Small Glass: Choose this if you want a small, 1970s-inspired tumbler with colorful sunset-style stripes in warm mustard, rose, dark, and cream tones on a speckled matte ceramic body. Its cylindrical shape measures 3 inches (7.5 cm) in diameter by 3.25 inches (8 cm) tall, with a glossy interior, rounded rim, and dishwasher- and microwave-safe construction. Note that despite the glassware category, this piece is made of ceramic, not glass.[4,5]Natural Expression Small Glass: Choose this if you want a small, handle-free ceramic cup with a 1970s nature-and-pottery-inspired look: it measures 3 inches (7.5 cm) in diameter by 3.25 inches (8 cm) tall and features a glossy light-beige interior with a glossy olive-green upper exterior over a darker, matte, speckled brown base. The hand-applied reactive glaze makes each piece beautifully unique, though it may vary slightly from the photo, and the cup is dishwasher and microwave safe. Note that despite the glassware listing, the material is ceramic, and it comes in one size in a Khaki/Sage/Olive colorway.[6,7]
