Description
This stoneware cup is defined by its fluting: fine vertical ridges run from the foot all the way to the rim, and the solid pink glaze pools softly in each groove so the colour deepens and lightens as the light moves across it. The body is narrow at the base and opens out towards the top, finished with a rounded loop handle. It holds 220ml, measures 8.5cm across and 8.5cm tall, and weighs 0.25KG. That size settles an important question: this is a proper coffee or tea cup rather than a big mug, so a flat white or a cup of breakfast tea fits it nicely.
We think of it as the cup for slow mornings: a first coffee at the kitchen table, a pot of tea shared over breakfast, or an afternoon cup at the desk while the house is quiet. Stoneware holds heat well, which suits anyone who likes to linger over a drink. The muted pink is gentle enough to sit happily beside white, grey or wooden tableware, so it adds a little warmth without taking over the table. It also makes a thoughtful small gift for a friend who has just moved into a new home or who simply takes their coffee seriously.
The cup is made entirely of stoneware and finished in a solid coloured glaze. The maker states that it goes in the dishwasher, the microwave and the oven, so warming a forgotten coffee and clearing up afterwards need no special care. For a relaxed table, set it on a plain saucer or a small wooden board of your own and let the fluting do the work; two or three side by side on an open shelf look considered rather than crowded.
