Approx. 7-5/8" tall, 3-1/4" diameter at rim
Food safe, microwave and dishwasher safe. Treat carefully as you would fine china.
Thrown freestyle by hand on the wheel without use of a mold, casting, guide, or ruler, so they will vary in size and proportion.
Lightweight, thin walled. North Carolina clay that is between stoneware and porcelain, so texture is smooth and fine yet earthy and strong. Painted with non-commercial glazes formulated at my school and fired to ~2400 degrees Fahrenheit for a vitrified watertight finish.
Humbly handmade by me, Gem, in Tampa Bay, FL USA.
Imperfections are part of the nature and charm of handmade work.
