Red matte thermosensitive mug + individual box

Matte red thermo-sensitive mug | individual box
Thermo-sensitive ceramic mug with a matte red finish. On contact with hot liquids, the exterior changes color and reveals the sublimated image, and the effect returns as the contents cool.
The thermochromic ink layer is applied above the sublimation layer. At room temperature, the exterior is opaque. When hot liquid is poured into the mug, the thermochromic coating becomes transparent and reveals the printed image underneath. The effect is reversible and withstands hundreds of cycles.
