This beautifully unique handmade ceramic mug plays with both texture and colour. The texture around the top half of the mug is smooth whilst the lower section of the mug has a sand "pelagia" feel. Visually the mug also plays on the colour of sand intertwined with hints of light blue.
The design is inspired by ancient Greek pottery and handmade from the island of Crete.
Size: H7 x D7.5cm
High-quality stoneware using lead-free materials with a drink safe glaze.
Dishwasher and microwave safe.
Due to the handmade nature of our ceramics, slight variations do occur. These unique details and glaze hues are what differentiates them from factory made items and are what we appreciate most about the craftsmanship.
Maker Story
Established in Chania, Crete, in 1984 by husband and wife partnership Noufris Papatzanakis and Lotte Neumann, this small family business continues the long tradition of ancient Greek ceramics, focusing on handmade tableware and home décor for use in today’s homes. Crete has the advantage of having one of the longest histories of ceramic making in the Mediterranean world and after researching its Island’s ceramic traditions, they continue to produce pieces in the same way with great skill and expertise.
