Groovy Cup

Sense of centered movement draws attention to the details on this cup. Tall, curvy and exuding modern design luxury.  

The cup displays perfect symmetricity throughout its bodice. Its soft interior is brush glazed with a thin layer of glass, yet leaving room to feel the texture beneath. The concentric grooves on the exterior are the highlight of this cup, following the design onto the base. Over a light, the grooves glow up like rings of fire exuding pure porcelain divinity. 

Holds 90 ml.

Porcelain is the 'liquid silk' of the ceramic world. Notoriously difficult & temperamental but capable of breathtaking elegance that no other earth can mimic. Working with porcelain clay feels like sculpting with softened butter, wanting to be coaxed with delicate memories. A stark bone-white canvas allows for microscopic details and a legendary translucency. When fired to maturity, it does not just hold light; it invites it in. In the kiln, the clay undergoes a dramatic transformation, shrinking significantly as it vitrifies. Because it becomes almost liquid at peak temperatures, a piece must be perfectly balanced or it will loose structure and alignment. Mastering porcelain is a high-stakes dance requiring speed and gentleness. When you succeed, you are left with something permanent, ethereal, and precious, the physical embodiment of 'strength in fragility'.
