True Blue Textured Mugs - Single or Pair
True Blue Textured Mugs - Single or Pair
Add a spark of energy to your daily cup of coffee or tea with these boldly blue handcrafted mugs. Each 12 ounce cup was created from durable stoneware clay on the potter's wheel, and include a comfortable hand-pulled handle and a slip textured surface. The generous size and ergonomic handle make these perfect for those who love a large daily cup. These mugs have a nice wide mouth, they could even double as a soup mug.
DIMENSIONS
Each stands around 3 1/2" tall, measures 3 3/4" wide across the lip, and will hold 12 ounces with a little room for cream or milk. These mugs can be purchased alone, or in a set of 2. All of my pottery is microwave and dishwasher safe.
The cups were made with cone 5 B-Mix 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 slowly spun on the wheel.
These mugs were glazed with my Midnight Black glaze on the interior and rim. The outer mug was glazed in my True Blue glaze. This is a transparent, glossy cobalt blue glaze that runs and flows around the slip texture. The texture adds some light and shadow play to the deep blue color, and it feels nice to touch. The mugs were fired to cone 6 (around 2200° F) in my electric kiln.
