Cadmium Red Coffee Mug 11oz

This Cadmium Red 'History of Colour' Mug is minimalist in design and features the following snipit of the history of this solid and bright colour:

'A superstar colour that arose from less than superstar origins!
Cadmium compounds have been the source of bright yellows since 1817. It was some 100 years later that Cadmium Red was produced when chemists heated Cadmium Yellow together with selenium! (That’s it!)'
