Description
These mugs have a wonderful clean Spring freshness to them.
These mugs remind me of wonderful Spring days as the green returns to our land and the new leaves unfurl.
I first threw the body of the mug from a good stoneware clay. When if had firmed to leather hard I turned the base and then added the handle which I’d pulled previously. The mug was then left to dry slowly to ensure that the handle join is strong.
Once it was bone dry I fired it in the kiln to 1000C. I then glazed the mug with this gorgeous Spring green on the outside and moody clouds on the inside spilling onto the outside. The rim I glazed with an olive glaze for added interest. It was then popped back into the kiln and fired to 1240C; that’s hot.
I sign all my pieces with my initials, REJM. To me each one deserves to be acknowledged as individual.
The handmade nature of studio pottery, the unpredictability of the glaze reactions in the kiln makes all pieces unique.
I would hate my ceramics to get broken in transit so I make sure that all my parcels are very well packaged. I use a combination or recycled materials and reused packaging.
Your items will come gift wrapped.
If you could quote a ‘safe place’ on your order for the courier to leave the parcel that would be great.
