Trigger Mug

Our famous trigger mug is an enduring classic because it's comfortable to hold, keeps liquids hot, looks great — a mid-century design that has never gone out of style.

In it for the long haul

I've had six of the blue agate trigger mugs for at least 30 years now - the original six with no crazing, nicks, or roughness and they're used a lot. There are a number of other Bennington products in my home but these mugs are absolutely the best.

LOVE these mugs!

I purchased two of the trigger mugs when I visited earlier this year. My tea has never tasted better than it does in these mugs. It also seems to stay warmer longer. I broke both of them recently, so I am ordering more!

My Absolute Favorite Mugs!

You cannot go wrong with these mugs! I bought 2 as seconds at the physical store in VT 4 years ago, and they are still looking great. Unique design, love the different ways I can comfortably hold the cup in my hand.

Family favorite

Our family has had trigger mugs for years. When my son was ten and visiting grandparents in NH, he told my mom he liked her mugs and drank everything from one every day. She sent him home with one. Now he's 29 and asked what happened to Grandma's mugs. He has the only one so I ordered a couple for him for Christmas. Today I found out my cousins have a set of dishes including some mugs! I love the finish of your dishes.

Love Bennington

Love the Bennington pottery. The color goes well in my country home.

A must mug!

Great glazing, weight and perfect handle. I got one in the late 90's from an antique store in California. It broke in 2004 --it took 14 years to think to look on the internet and reunite me with my favorite mug and Bennington potters.

Trigger Mug

My husband and I celebrated our 25th anniversary with a New England trip. And of course we toured your pottery facility and purchased our first blue agate. A trigger mug was one of the purchases which broke recently with much sadness on my end. A new trigger mug was purchased to add to my collection. Just love every piece I own!
