This magnificent mug is carved only with hand tools from a single piece of walnut. For its manufacture, I used: a hand saw, an ax, a knife, and a hook knife or a bent gouge. To protect against moisture, the mug is covered several times with linseed oil and a special composition of linseed oil, beeswax and carnauba wax. So this wooden mug is durable, easy to clean and maintain, and can be used daily.
