Lilac Large Textured Pottery Mug
Lilac Large Textured Pottery Mug
Soft lilac glazes flow across this handmade pottery mug, settling into gentle ridges that give the surface depth, movement, and quiet character. The rounded form feels comfortable in the hand, while the bright white interior provides a clean contrast that makes the rich lavender tones stand out beautifully. Each mug is one of a kind, with subtle variations that celebrate the handmade process.
Generously sized for everyday use, this mug is made for lingering over your favorite drink. Its rounded form rests comfortably in your hands, while the textured surface offers a pleasant tactile quality that makes each cup feel just as enjoyable to hold as it is to use.

Process
These mugs were made with cone 5 B-Mix (white stoneware) clay on my potter's wheel. Slip (a blend of water and clay blended smooth) was applied to the outside of the mug while it was still wet on the wheel. To create the texture, a ragged brush was drug through the wet slip as the cup spun on the wheel.
These mugs were glazed with Milky Gloss White glaze on the interior and rim. The outer mug was glazed in my Lilac glaze. This is a transparent, glossy glaze that runs and flows around the slip texture. The texture adds some light and shadow play to the lilac color, and it feels nice to touch.
