Mate Imperial - Stainless Steel with Leather

Available in 2 colors: black and reddish brown
Size: 13×8 cm.
The inner wall is made of 304 stainless steel. This is a handmade mate cup crafted by Argentine artisans, designed for traditional yerba mate drinking. It comes with a wide-base stainless steel bombilla (filter straw). The cup is wrapped in genuine cow leather, stitched into shape. The base is decorated with golden beads, while the legs and upper rim feature engraved alpaca silver in Abstracta style. The lip of the cup is laser-etched stainless steel with the LATINO SECRETS logo.

How to Clean the Mate Cup
After drinking, use the bombilla to scoop out the used yerba mate
You can use dish soap to clean the inside, but rinse the leather exterior with clean water only
Pat dry both the inside and outside with a paper towel
Store the cup upright to prevent water from pooling at the rim

Important note:
When pouring hot water over the yerba, avoid filling to the rim to prevent hot water from touching the sealed joint at the cup’s lip
Mate cups are handmade, so small marks from the crafting process—such as metal soldering or leather dyeing—may be present. Sizes may also vary slightly
To keep the leather exterior looking new, we recommend rubbing a small amount of coconut oil onto the leather every 5 months. As for the alpaca silver rim, if it becomes dull over time, gently polish it with a soft cloth and a bit of toothpaste to restore shine
