I handcraft each mug from rich terracotta brown stoneware clay, dipping them in a warm cashmere slip to create a soft, inviting glow beneath a satin matte white glaze. Minimalist decorations add a touch of meaning and beauty, with a tiny cobalt horse on one side and a coneflower on the other—a nod to echinacea and its healing properties. Every detail is designed with comfort and function in mind. The lip is rounded for a smooth drinking experience, and the handle is carefully shaped to fit naturally in your hand. Whether you prefer to cup the mug for warmth or hold it by the handle, there’s space for 2-3 fingers and a subtle resting spot for added support. The inside of the handle is rounded for comfort, while the outer side is slightly flattened to ensure a secure grip. These mugs are more than just something to drink from—they’re a part of your daily rituals, bringing warmth, connection, and a subtle touch of symbolism to your moments of pause.
