This mug design was dipped in Nuka glaze and then splashed and painted with brush strokes using the oil spot glaze. Joel mixes these glazes in our studio.
Comfortable additions of clay on the handle help these mugs look and feel handmade, emphasizing how they were formed with my hands. Finger marks on the bottom of each mug were left from my fingers intentionally, showing how I dipped the pots in the glaze.
All of our Stoneware and porcelain pottery is 100% food and dishwasher safe.
