Dark Stoneware Limited Edition HAN-CHIGA cup set
HANDCRAFTED IN SICILY BY ESTHER SUAVE
This limited edition series of illustrated cups is comprised of 5 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 collection of cups, each one illustrating a doggo living his best life. We hope they bring joy into your day and a smile on your face.
The solid feel of the cups makes for a dazing tea experience. For the aesthetics, the set is intended to visually please the eye and spark joy at home.
