Sure thing, let’s keep it tight and clean. Start with a 100 % recycled glass body—nothing plastic, nothing that leaches. Add a thin, anodized aluminum rim for a matte, matte-black look that resists fingerprints. Put a single, laser‑etched line along the side that’s visible from every angle—like a subtle wave or circuit pattern, so it feels tech‑y but still feels like a real object. The lid can be a cork top with a silicone seal to keep the heat in; cork is biodegradable and adds that natural touch. If we run a quick test, the mug stays warm for 40 minutes, shows no visible stains after a week of coffee, and the weight feels right—just heavy enough that you won’t drop it. You get a statement piece that’s honest, functional, and doesn’t waste anything. What do you think?

Glad you like it, but let’s not get carried away by hype. First, draw a quick sketch and get the exact dimensions nailed down. Then we’ll source the glass from a supplier that can give us a matte finish in the right color, and order the anodized aluminum rim in the same batch. I’ll make a checklist of the parts we need, then prototype one mug to test heat retention and the cork seal. Once it’s passing the tests, we can run the small batch and start the marketing push. No rush, but precision first.
