DATUM to-go thermo mug made of porcelain
Made entirely of porcelain, the double-walled DATUM to-go thermo mug is the first of its kind from FÜRSTENBERG.
With a body thickness of just two and a half millimetres, the cup is unexpectedly light. The double-walled design of the to-go thermo mug keeps coffee and tea hotter for longer.
The DATUM to-go thermo mug is also available with a classic white glaze and in a satin-finished version in matt white.

Modern accents in stone grey and slate black
The DATUM To-Go thermo mug will be available in two new colour variants from June 2024: Stone grey is a cool and harmoniously pale shade. Slate black is a fascinating colour, with blue and green hues that are revealed when light falls at a certain angle.
Both colour variants are handmade in the factory from solid-coloured porcelain clay, and refined with a shiny glaze.
Dots or a grid?
Sometimes it’s a question of perspective. The pattern on the porcelain to-go thermo mugs in the DATUM range from FÜRSTENBERG plays with the senses.
The design – like the DATUM shape itself – comes from Foster + Partners and is an allusion to the company’s own architecture. Many of the windows in the architecture and design studio’s London building are so-called fritted glass – glass panes with an integrated dot in a grid pattern, which filters the sun’s rays. The product designers have transferred this characteristic pattern to the DATUM to-go thermo mugs. Ultimately, it’s in the eye of the beholder: are we seeing coloured dots or a white grid?
"The DATUM porcelain collection melds pioneering product design and a passion for hand craftsmanship to create an unparalleled whole."
The challenge of manufacturing
Achieving pure geometry represents one of the most technically demanding challenges when handling porcelain.
With considerable hand craftsmanship, expertise and maximum precision, the sophisticated design of Foster + Partners comes to life in peerless product quality at the Porzellanmanufaktur FÜRSTENBERG.
DATUM was awarded the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2023 for its high design quality.
WAGENFELD
Form WANGENFELD: Consistently functional design and eternal elegance. The design classic WAGENFELD is a milestone of the porcelain and tableware design. Wilhelm Wagenfeld created this tableware collection by the name “Service 639” in 1934, true to the spirit of Bauhaus. Even today, this ageless modern tableware service WAGENFELD with its persistent topicality continues being an eye-catcher. The diversity of cups, plates or other tableware objects of WAGENFELD such as the jug – aesthetically blend in perfectly with any well-laid table. With every WAGENFELD piece, the material, functionality and design in combination form a truly unique entity. This allows vases, bowls and other WAGENFELD Edition giftware to create that desired stylish effect, whether used as a single piece or displayed in combination.
The original and entirely white design is at the heart of the design classic WAGENFELD series. Here, you can feel the concentrated passion that the Bauhaus design artist Wagenfeld put into the porcelain’s design. Every single piece of WAGENFELD emanates a discrete design idea leading to a product consistent with the proportions and concepts of the Bauhaus movement. Well-balanced proportions, simple beauty, finest quality and supreme manufacture are the prevailing features of these meticulously and precisely hand-crafted creamers, teacups and sugar boxes of WAGENFELD. Every single piece of the form WAGENFELD flawlessly lives up to Wagenfeld’s maxim that: “useful things must be attractive, otherwise they don’t fulfil their purpose”.
