Ø 3.75” x 2.75” h. Each cup embeds trimmings from the nerikomi processes that we use to form our bowls & plates. Patterned fragments and solid clay sections are hand-pressed into a plaster mold, casting them in place; inlay patterns are visible on both interior & exterior surfaces, with matching handle extruded from the same pattern.
This is the next gen extrusion miniaturization that Shannon has been developing. The level of intricate detail on the bats is completely sublime. Like the fish patterns from earlier series, the bats here are all clones—made from a vertical stack then cut into slices and then assembled into a hexagonal pattern, like a honeycomb. We have some bowls that will be arriving soon.
Interior surface is clear-glazed while the exterior surface is left raw to enhance the experience of touching natural clay. All Slush Club objects are food-safe and dishwasher-friendly.
While our cups are formed in a plaster mold, each cup is unique and variation is to be expected; the stacking of clays and forming to the mug shape also creates subtle warping (like, the opening is not an even oval but rather a more organic version of what an oval could be).
