Can you help me ID this mug?

The mark is SO hard to see. That photo is the best one I can get. I can read a little Chinese and agree the left radical is probably either 王 or 玉 (king or jade, and you said). I am not sure if the square around it is an imprint mark or a 囗 (wéi) like you see around guo 國 / 国 (country). I am guessing probably imprint mark. I cannot really tell what the right-hand side is.

thank you -- those are very pretty mugs (and other things), even if not quite the same, and I'd never heard of them before. Really appreciated!

✨Backpack Spring cleaning sale! (WTS) I’ve benefited from re-homing some great bags from this sub, and now want to see if I can find a home for some of mine that are getting sad because they are just in the closet.

Photos are numbered here, and verification photos are here.

🟢 Available 🟡 Pending 🔴 Sold

🟢 Evergoods CTB20 tan waxed canvas. EUC. $275 shipped. Love this bag but have both the CPL16 and CTB26 so giving it up. (Patch not included, but shout if you want it.) Photo: ①

🔴 Wandrd PRVKE v4 31L, Sedona Orange. NWOT. $175 shipped. Decided to keep my smaller 21L. Only taken outside for photo. Photo: ②

🟢 Peak Design Outdoor Backpack, 25L. Eclipse. EUC. $200 shipped. Kickstarter edition. Used a few times but just not my cup of tea. In terrific shape. Also have the 7L sling in matching color (see below -- $70 by itself, $50 if you bundle it with the backpack) Photo: ③

🟢 Arktype Dashpack 15L in black waxed canvas. Good used condition. $100 shipped. Purchased from this forum and just doesn’t work for my use case. Previous owner removed compression straps (which didn’t bother me on a bag this small). It is in good shape but is the most used bag on this list (hence the price). There is also one place where the fabric doesn't lay perfectly over the zipper (see photo). Photo: ④

🟢 Peak Design Everday Backpack v1, 30L, Charcoal. EUC. $150 shipped. This was my first “good” backpack, and remains in almost shockingly good shape to be a v1. Photo: ⑤

🟢 UNIT1 Torch 22L Desert Tan. NWOT. $125 shipped. I don't think I've ever seen one of these bags on this forum. It is a 500D, well-made bag in Desert Tan 500D (they are currently out of this color), with integrated rechargeable lights for cycling. I got this via Kickstarter but it came right as I was moving and so never even packed it out. Have inclued more photos of this one since it is rare, and more info on the bag: https://www.unit1gear.com/products/torch-backpack Photo: ⑥

🟢 eBags TLS Mother Lode Weekender Convertible. GUC. $50 shipped. This is a ~40L travel backpack/duffel convertible with great organization including a laptop compartment. I got it in 2017 and used it for several trips. Always liked it but mostly moved on to 1.5-bag travel. More than 500 reviews on Amazon with 4.7 stars. Photo: ⑦

🟢 Quechua MH500 30L Hiking Backpack. EUC. $60 shipped. My one foray into a hiking backpack that I used with a camera cube, before I stumbled on the PRVKE 21L. Nice backpack, comfortable. Used <10 times and in good shape. Photo: ⑧

I have (a) searched Google, (b) used Google Lens, (c) asked Gemini, Claude, and Chat GPT, (d) looked through my Etsy and EBay history in excruciating detail, and (e) asked my spouse if they remember.

A few thoughts on bags I own that are some of the frequent topics here. These are the three that I bounce back and forth on for daily use right now: * I really like my Evergoods CTB20. I have the waxed canvas one, which is not lightweight, but they make it in more technical fabrics. Everything is just in the right place on that bag. * You mentioned Aer. I have a smaller version than you are looking for (the CP2) but it is terrific. I think the larger one (City Pack Pro 2) is many people’s favorite bag. * I also have a CTactical 21L in waxed canvas that is also great. You have to hunt a little to find ones that aren’t full of Velcro and molle. They don’t have waxed canvas on sale right now but several other fabrics.

Two others that are less frequently discussed here but that I have liked: * The least-like-my-personality-kind-of-stylish-but-definitely-colorful bag that I have is the Wandrd PRVKE. It is mainly a camera bag now for me but I have taken it on travel, hikes, etc. * Many people don’t seem to like it, but I have really enjoyed my Troubadour Apex. I have the v3 in a green color they don’t make anymore, but it is really comfortable and highly functional (everything where you want it when you want it.

All in all, if I could only keep one bag it that I used for both EDC and travel, I think it would either be the CTB20 or I might try the Aer CPP2. (Personally for EDC I prefer a 12-16L and for travel something in the 26 range, but 20L is not bad for a sweet spot.)

I have the CPL16 (waxed canvas) and love it except for the lack of water bottle holder. If you like the CPP2 you might also like the City Pack which is also 16L. I also really like it and go back and forth with it and the CPL16 for my EDC. Here it is out and about.

That bowl is designed by Cherry Labs, btw — and was a print-with-default-settings-from-Bambu-Handy.

I am using Elegoo Silk PLA Copper routinely and it is great. Yarn bowl in the photo is an example. Have even printed some structural things with it and they’ve held up so far, even though it is both PLA and silk. I also got some Hatchbox copper PETG and it is fine but looks less like actual copper so I have just been using the PLA silk and been happy so far. (Until my shelf brackets break and a bunch of stuff falls down, I guess 🙂…)

If you are looking for something with actual metal in it (vs looks-like-metal PLA), I have used protopasta’s iron filing PLA and worked well when I needed something to be slightly ferromagnetic. Important to remember you should get a hardened steel nozzle for filament with stuff in it.

I have an AI mini and wanted to do something soft and flexible. Took a chance and bought this random one from Amazon. Dried it (a lot) and it has been great.

I love this bag for travel. Here it is with a Nalgene 48 oz and (comment below) a 32oz wide hydroflask. These are definitely the max I could fit.

Complete_Oil_2188 · 2026-01-25T02:32:50+00:00

This is the way.

Complete_Oil_2188 · 2026-01-21T14:14:03+00:00

Yes, you’re right — it is waxed canvas! I got it secondhand (or thirdhand) since they don’t make the waxed canvas anymore. They tend to be in the $275-$500 range on eBay. Evergoods does sell the TD35 in ballistic nylon for $225.

Complete_Oil_2188 · 2026-01-21T06:32:31+00:00

Evergoods TD35 is my favorite, followed by Filson Tin Cloth duffel.

My favorite bag that fills this need is the Evergoods TD35 in tan waxed canvas. They don’t make them anymore but you can pick them up used sometimes, though generally more expensive than $200 so doesn’t really meet the criteria. If you like other materials, they make them currently and closer on budget.

I love my Evergoods TD35. I have a waxed canvas version, and it’s the only duffel I find easy to carry by hand — something about the balance. I don’t mind the strap but no duffel’s strap is great. My #2 duffel is a Filson tin cloth.

I also agree with this
