Handmade ceramic mugs stoneware coffee mugs pottery tea mugs stoneware drinkware - Purple red jellyfish slip bump mug 3766

High-fired Cone10-11 ceramic stoneware pottery mug. High-fired to 2350 degrees in a homemade kiln in a gas reduction-type atmosphere. Glossy, handmade unique layers of flowing glazes. Clean finish. High-end, individually made, unique pieces masterfully hand thrown on a pottery wheel. Artist signature is represented as a traditional potter's "chop" (hand-carved clay stamped frog).

All pieces are handcrafted by artisan from Virginia, USA.

Slip trailing is used to create an abstract jellyfish for glazes to flow around during the firing process.

Bumps made by using an old wooden tablespoon held against the outside of a vessel as index finger is pressed from the inside outward. This creates a consistent round bump to the exterior of the vessel. Glazes behave interesting as they find the path of least resistance around these bumps. These bumps give the user a functional gripping point.

Microwave, dishwasher safe. Durable.

Perfect size for your morning cup of coffee or tea.

Approximately 3” diameter by 6” tall. Holds approximately 16 ounces.
