mermaid mug
A mug featuring a mermaid finding a pearl!
About the process ~ I use a process called “sgraffito” to make these pieces. It comes from the Italian word “graffiare”, which means “to scratch”. In the context of pottery, I paint a layer of colored slip (or really runny clay) over the base of the mug, and once it dries I “scratch” or carve away that slip layer to create images and patterns. All of my sgraffito pieces are hand carved without stencils which makes each a unique, one-of-a-kind work.
A decently sized mug that holds ~18oz. made from speckled tan stoneware clay.
Dishwasher, microwave and oven safe. Handmade in Longmont, Colorado with mud and love.
Please allow up to 14 days for your order to be packaged and shipped. Reach out directly to hestiascupboard@gmail.com for express packaging and shipping options.
