Description
The Sandrine is a round stoneware cup with a full belly and a loop handle, finished in a grey reactive glaze. The glaze is speckled across the body and deepens to a darker band at the rim, which is gently irregular rather than perfectly level, and the handle carries the same darker tone. It holds 275ml, a generous measure: enough for a proper cup of tea or a milky coffee, well beyond a small espresso. It stands 8cm tall and 8.5cm across, a size that settles neatly into both hands on a cold morning.
This is a cup for the breakfast table and the kitchen, for the first coffee of the day or a pot of tea shared at the weekend. Stoneware holds heat well, a quality worth having for anyone who lingers over a drink. The rounded shape and speckled grey finish suit a relaxed, rustic table, and they look just as at home on a desk or a bedside table with an evening hot chocolate. Because it is sold as a single cup, it is easy to buy one for yourself, or several to give a mixed table a common thread.
Stoneware is a dense, hard-fired clay, and this cup weighs 0.246KG. A reactive glaze changes as it fires, so no two pieces finish quite alike. Care is simple: it goes in the dishwasher, it can go in the microwave to rewarm a drink that has gone cold, and it can go in the oven too. Set it out with plain linen and pale wooden boards, where the grey glaze and darker rim show at their best, or hang a few from hooks beneath a shelf so they stay within easy reach.
