The Hand Hammered Copper Mug Set

These are the hand-hammered 100% copper mugs that are essential for serving a Moscow Mule, the famous cocktail first popularized in 1940s Hollywood. By most accounts, the drink was the creation of two struggling businessmen: one a vodka dealer, the other a Hollywood restaurateur who bottled his own ginger beer. They combined their respective beverages, added ice, lime juice, and a sprig of mint and served it up in copper mugs like these—christening their concoction “The Moscow Mule”. Each barrel-shaped 20-oz. mug is hand hammered by skilled craftsman from solid copper—not nickel lined like lesser varieties—in a time-honored manner that lends each mug its own unique rugged charm. With a solid brass handle and lacquer coating that resists tarnishing for lasting beauty and luster. Hand wash. Imported. 4" H x 4 1/2" W x 3 1/2" D each. Set of 4. (1 3/4 lbs.)
