Description
This is a stoneware cup made for the hot drink you make most often. It holds 250ml, a good size for a full cup of tea or a milky coffee, and it is 8cm across and 9cm tall, so it sits comfortably in one hand. The body is 100% stoneware, finished in a white reactive glaze with a fine speckle across the surface, and the rounded loop handle is wide enough to take your fingers. Stoneware holds heat well, and the cup weighs 0.3KG.
It suits the kitchen counter for a first tea of the morning, the desk for an afternoon coffee and the breakfast table at the weekend. Hot chocolate, herbal tea or a warm drink before bed are just as much at home in it as coffee. The white glaze and soft speckle sit easily alongside pale wood, linen and the plain crockery most of us already own, so it slips into an everyday table without fuss. It also makes a thoughtful gift for someone setting up a first home, or for anyone who prefers a speckled glaze to a plain one.
The cup goes in the dishwasher, the microwave and the oven, so cleaning up is easy and a drink that has gone cold can be warmed again in the microwave. Reactive glazes shift as they fire, so the speckle falls a little differently from one piece to the next and each cup has its own character. Keep a few beside the kettle on a small tray, or hang them by their handles from hooks under a kitchen shelf, where they stay within easy reach.
