Sunrise Cup

A delightful and comforting cup showcasing yellow and red hues painted across clear porcelain body. 

Spreading wide from a small foot, this cup is the absolute best for tea drinkers. As your brew cools down releasing flavours closer to the brim, this cup holds it well for you to enjoy the whole brew at a consistent temperature. Yellow and pink strokes adorn the cup from inside and its meticulously carved exterior displays the elegance this clay has to present. Soft hits of metal tool create intricate pattern close to the lip and a bold line at the bottom enhances the grip. 

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'.
