Description
This is a round stoneware cup with a bright silver plated finish and a large ring handle that stands out from the body like a small wheel. The surface is gently dimpled all over, so light catches it unevenly and each turn of the cup gives a different reflection. It holds 300ml, which makes it a generous cup for a full serving of tea or a milky coffee rather than a small espresso cup. It measures 10cm across and 8cm tall and weighs 0.33KG. Stoneware is a dense, hard-wearing ceramic, and the plating gives it the look of polished metal.
It suits a first cup of tea at the kitchen table, an afternoon coffee with a friend or a slow drink at a desk by the window. The silver brings a little shine to an everyday tray and sits happily among plain stoneware plates and linen napkins. The ring handle is large and open, with plenty of room for a finger, and the rounded body fits neatly into a cupped palm. It also makes a thoughtful gift for someone who likes a playful kitchen, and between drinks it looks well on an open shelf or cup rack, where the reflective surface picks up the light of the room.
The cup is 100% stoneware with a plated silver finish, and the maker lists it as food safe. It is dishwasher safe, so it can go in with the rest of the crockery after breakfast. It is not suitable for the microwave or the oven, so heat milk in a pan first and pour it into the cup. To style it, stand two side by side on a plain tray with a small jug, or let a single cup sit on a shelf where daylight can play across its dimpled surface.
