The narrow bottom rises to a wider neck, and the lip is tipped out to fit your mouth. This style can hold 8 ounces of hot or cold beverages and is perfect for the person who loves to cradle the warm cup in their hands.
Making these pieces is a process of flow, the cup tells me how much belly to give it, how tall or squat it will be. I have a general idea of how I want it to be but no two are ever exactly the same. I make these in all clay types and just about any glaze combo. I’m always exploring new glazes so you never know what new colors may be showing up.
