Description
Our Paula cup is round stoneware that holds 275ml, a generous everyday measure for coffee or tea, a size between a small coffee cup and a large mug. The body is close to a ball, 9cm across and 8cm tall, with a neat ring handle standing out from the side and room for the fingers. The reactive glaze in light blue is deepest and most streaked towards the rim, then pales towards the foot, with fine speckles through it, and the bare stoneware shows as a thin band at the rim and the base.
It earns its place on the kitchen table and the breakfast tray, and it is just as much at home beside the laptop on a working day. Use it for a cappuccino, a strong builder's tea, a hot milky drink on a winter evening or soup for one at lunchtime. The rounded body fits comfortably cupped in both hands, which is exactly what you want on a slow weekend morning or after a cold walk. It also makes a thoughtful gift for a tea or coffee lover, and it suits a calm, pared-back kitchen as well as a cosy cottage one.
Stoneware is fired hard and dense, so it is a sturdy material for daily use and it holds heat well. The cup goes in the dishwasher, the microwave and the oven, so a coffee that has cooled can go straight back into the microwave and washing up is simple. A reactive glaze moves and pools in the kiln, so the colour falls a little differently on every piece and yours will carry its own pattern. It weighs 0.26KG, a comfortable weight for an everyday cup. For styling, line several along an open shelf by the kettle, or pair one with natural linen and pale wood for a soft, relaxed breakfast table.
