Too large to be tea cups. They are mislabeled. I didnt realize they were 14 ounces. But they are very cute. Too fun with the pattern printed inside and the textured outside to send back. I can use them as bowls as they hold the same amount  as my ceral/soup bowls at home or they can be used  for the occasion hot chocolate mug with plenty of room to spare for people who want whipped cream or marshmellows on top
