Dark Stoneware Limited Edition HAN-CHIGA Cup

HANDCRAFTED IN SICILY BY ESTHER SUAVE

This series of illustrated cups is comprised of single, numbered collector pieces.

Each piece is individually handmade & a one of a kind creation. As a result products will have subtle variations from one piece to the next. 

The creative process

Each one of them is a product of a meticulous wheel throwing process, where each piece is crafted into a unique shape by hand.

It then undergoes an initial firing for a prolonged period of time, using a technique called bisque-firing done at 1020 degrees Celsius.

After the first firing, each piece is decorated and left to dry.  A second glaze-firing follows at a temperature of ~1240 degrees Celsius.

The piece is then left for the stoneware to mature and the glaze to vitrify.   

The result is a comic, dark stoneware, illustrating a doggo ski-jumping, while enjoying a cup of saffron Focus tea and conquering new heights and setting unbreakable records. We hope this brings joy into your day and a smile on your face.

The solid feel of the cup makes for a dazing tea experience.
