Single Espresso Cup
Single Espresso Cup
Hand thrown on the potter’s wheel, these cups were crafted to be appreciated in the ritual of making espresso.
Made individually from high-fire clay from Pennsylvania, each cup is shaped, turned, burnished, kiln-fired and glazed by hand, resulting in subtle variations in tone and organic forms unique to each piece.
The robin’s egg blue glaze is peppered with brown flecks, and as the name suggests, features an egg-shell like semi-matte finish that feels smooth to the touch.
The lower quarter of each cup is lightly burnished and left unglazed, revealing the warm, natural color of the clay body.
The underside of each cup is finished with a small foot ring, and stamped with a maker’s mark. The gently tapered base gives the appearance that the petite cup floats gently on a surface.
Best used for shots of espresso, sake or other libations.
