120ml is espresso and Turkish coffee size, and the size genuinely matters for both: a strong small coffee served in a large cup cools within a minute and looks lost, while the right cup keeps it hot and concentrates the aroma at the rim. This set pairs six 120ml ceramic cups with matching 13cm saucers, which catch drips and hold a spoon and a sugar cube — the way small coffee has traditionally been served. Ceramic holds heat far better than glass at this volume, where a thin-walled vessel would lose it almost immediately. Available in yellow, blue, purple and green, so a set can be colourful rather than uniform.

Buying guide
Warm espresso cups before pouring — at 120ml the coffee is in contact with a lot of ceramic relative to its volume, so a cold cup drops the temperature immediately and is the most common reason home espresso disappoints. Wash promptly, since espresso stains a cup interior faster than any other drink, and lift marks with a bicarbonate paste rather than a scourer. Store cups upright with space between them. A coloured set also solves a small practical problem at a gathering: everyone knows which cup is theirs.
How it compares
Against a full-size cup, 120ml keeps a small strong coffee hot and looking right. Against glass espresso cups, ceramic holds heat considerably better at this volume. For a long filter coffee or a large tea, a 300ml or larger cup is the right size.
Frequently asked questions
Why such a small cup?
Espresso and Turkish coffee are served small. In a large cup the same coffee cools within a minute and looks lost.
Why warm the cup first?
At 120ml the coffee touches a lot of ceramic relative to its volume, so a cold cup drops the temperature immediately.
How do I remove coffee staining?
A paste of bicarbonate of soda rather than a scourer, which scratches the glaze and makes future staining worse.
