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.
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).
[Sidebar: Any true fan is going to realize there is no way that this is mug number 1, given the vast range of mugs that we list time and time again. It’s probably going to be a huge problem with our next inventory system that I don’t just keep adding number after number to each subsequent addtion to our stock, but in the interim, it just always seems easier (like when you get a new checkbook) to just start over with #1. So, yeah, for today, this is mug no. 1. Spoiler: there is also a mug no. 2 just listed!!
