For over a decade, Bateman has worked in partnership with McIntosh mugs to create a product that shows fidelity to his paintings. His studies of moose, loons, bears, wolves, and songbirds are the creatures of the Canadian wilderness, all painted with reverence.
Whether you’re a lifelong admirer of Bateman’s work or a lover of Canadian nature, when searching for a meaningful addition to your cupboard, these mugs offer the chance to live with great art for the price of a premium coffee mug.
While Bateman’s paintings have hung in galleries and private collections around the world, and limited edition prints have long been prized by collectors, we’d argue that his art speaks most deeply to Canadians. Moments captured enjoying the edge of a northern lake at dusk, spotting a great horned owl in a winter forest, or the undeniable shiver of watching loons glide across still water.
Over more than a decade of collaboration, McIntosh Mugs has worked with Robert Bateman and his family to bring a carefully curated selection of his most beloved works to fine bone china. The result is a collection that is intimate and significant. These are the designs customers reach for when they want to give someone a gift with meaningful intent.
