Ridge and Valley layers soft sky blue at the rim down through bands of dusty blue, warm sandy tones, and cool gray — like looking out over a Pennsylvania ridgeline where sky dissolves into haze and haze dissolves into earth. The distinct horizontal banding gives this mug a topographic quality, each layer settling into the next the way sediment finds its level.
Wheel-thrown from brown speckled stoneware, this handmade pottery mug holds 12 oz and stands approximately 3.75” tall — a compact, comfortable size that fits easily in one hand. The warm sandy glazed interior carries the earthy palette all the way through.

Each mug is one of a kind. The kiln determines exactly where each band lands and how the colors bleed into one another, so no two will ever be identical. That’s the nature of handmade stoneware pottery.

Designed for a morning espresso, an afternoon tea, or anything that deserves a smaller, more deliberate pour.
