SPECS: 3 3/8 inches wide at the rim, 5 inches tall and holds 20 oz.
This elegantly organic cup is an absolutely stunning piece with mottled mossy green glazing and scattered with bursts of rich turquoise and obsidian black. As an experimental variation of the Agate series, this glaze was inspired by the Chrysocolla stone. The notch at the rim is meant to keep the tea bag string from falling into the scalding water. The handle has a comfortable three or four finger grip and its sloped sides and round base makes this mug so comfortable to hold as you savor a steamy brew.
~This piece was photographed in a photo booth with full spectrum lighting and may look different in different lighting conditions.
~Made on the wheel with Laguna B-Mix clay and food safe glazes.
~Although, technically, my pieces are dishwasher and microwave safe, we do not recommend it since they are works of art that should be treated with care. The dishwasher may, over time, dull the sheen of the glaze. As with any handmade pottery, avoid leaving it in a sink of water, which will seep into any exposed clay. If a piece that has water in it is microwaved, it may crack. Although it is a rare occurrence, ceramics can fracture from thermal shock. To avoid this possibility, fill your cup or mug with hot tap water as you are heating your tea water to warm the mug before adding boiling water. If handled properly, these pieces are intended to last many lifetimes, like treasured family heirlooms. We recommend hand washing your pieces and avoiding the microwave.
