Poppies maintain a kind of stoic serenity year-round, pulling you into daydreams filled with clear skies, swishing grasses and the distant hum of beetles and crickets. Here, delicate blossoms are juxtaposed with rugged seed pods, all supported by tall, slender stalks and topped with that iconic red.
This mug is thrown on the wheel using porcelain stoneware clay in my studio, located in Calgary, Alberta. The graphic on the mug has been hand-carved into the surface using the sgraffito technique, which involves covering the mug’s surface with my handmade black slip and carving away until the image is finished. This means you can feel the slightly raised, carved texture as you wrap your hands around a cozy cup of tea or coffee. While I create different series of designs each mug is made and decorated individually, so that no two pieces are identical, and each design is matched with one of my brightly coloured glazes.
Sizing: All of my mugs are handmade, so their individual sizes may differ slightly. I do my best to keep them as consistent as possible. Approximately 300mL Stands about 9.5cm tall and is 8.5cm wide at the base
