Elemental Artisan Tumbler with Ceramic Lid
Silicone is only a gasket/seal — what touches your food is Ceramic / Stoneware / Porcelain and Stainless Steel (grade unspecified).
Triple-wall steel travel tumbler topped with a hand-glazed ceramic lid, so both the interior and the drinking surface keep hot coffee off plastic.
The verdict: Silicone only
Almost uniquely among travel mugs, both the drink surface and the lid avoid plastic: a triple-wall stainless tumbler capped by a hand-glazed ceramic lid, so hot coffee only ever meets steel and ceramic. The one soft part is a removable silicone plug that makes it spill-resistant, which puts it at silicone-only. That is a step beyond ceramic-lined mugs (like the Fellow Carter) that still cap off with a plastic lid - here the lid itself is ceramic.

A triple-wall insulated stainless tumbler whose standout feature is its lid: a hand-glazed ceramic travel lid with a swiveling stopper, marketed as the first fully ceramic travel lid. It holds hot ~6h and cold ~18h. The lid is spill-resistant rather than fully leakproof - a swiveling stopper covers the drink opening - so it travels best upright.
Pros
- Ceramic lid means the drinking surface is ceramic, not plastic - rare in travel mugs
- Triple-wall insulation (hot ~6h, cold ~18h)
Cons
- Spill-resistant, not fully leakproof - keep it upright in a bag
- Ceramic lid can chip; hand-wash recommended for the lid
- Ceramic lip gets hot with very hot drinks
Notes
- Sizes: 12oz and 16oz
- Replacement ceramic lids are sold separately and fit the Artisan Tumbler
- Top-rack dishwasher safe for the tumbler; hand-wash the ceramic lid
