What are hand-painted mugs made of?

Are hand-painted mugs safe to use?
- Yes, hand-painted mugs are generally safe to use, especially when made with food-safe paints and glazes. It’s important to check that the mugs are labelled as food-safe to ensure they can be used for beverages without any health concerns. Always follow care instructions to maintain their quality.
Can hand-painted mugs go in the dishwasher?
