CLASSICAL
An Imperial-style mate made from algarrobo wood with alpaca detailing. Its generous interior capacity makes it a favorite among those who enjoy long mate sessions. Visually iconic in Argentina, it offers a warm, traditional feel but requires more care than enamel or stainless options. Ideal for travelers seeking an authentic, decorative, and culturally recognizable mate cup.
NOSTALGIC
An enamel mate mug. A classic style once common in Argentine grandparents’ homes. Compact, sturdy, and far easier to maintain than wooden mates. It’s less used today because of its small size, but it remains a recognizable staple. Works well as a souvenir, decorative piece, or even for occasional mate sessions with minimal upkeep.
