Description

Join the revolution! Have your tea, coffee or cold drinks on the go with our travel cup made from natural rice husk.

These coffee/tea cups contain no melamine or other plastics and are BPA and toxin free. These rice husk cups are fully biodegradable.

When you are ready to dispose of this cup, soak it in water overnight, crush and bury it in compost or soil. It will start to biodegrade in the soil within six months. 

What is rice husk anyway?  It is the outermost layer of protection encasing a rice grain. It is converted into a useful material by being combined with natural resin(with no added chemicals) to make a hard, durable biodegradable substance which is ideal for making cups and other tableware.

Look after it and it will last for years. Light, Durable, Comfortable, Stylish, Strong, Easy to clean (no staining) and biodegradable. In other words, you can’t go wrong!

Whoever came up with this novel design is a genius. What a brilliant idea combining a classic British design (well not really, it was Persian originally, truth be told) with its fractal like teardrop motif with the Cosmos itself.

This whimsical cup is bound to cheer up any beverage, and, naturally all who sup from it.
