These mugs were born from a simple ritual: a warm drink resting in the hands. For me, tea or coffee is a moment to pause - to take a breath, gather your thoughts, and reconnect with the present. It’s an experience worth slowing down for, and a well-designed mug plays a subtle but essential role in that moment.
Each mug is shaped to sit naturally in the hand, balanced and reassuring, as though it has found its place there. The form invites your fingers in, while the warmth of the drink gently radiates through the clay, encouraging you to linger just a little longer.
Made for unhurried mornings and reflective pauses, these mugs are companions to small rituals - objects that turn an everyday habit into something felt, grounded, and mindfully enjoyed.
