A closer look
This is a handcrafted ceramic coffee mug, designed with a distinctive "old wall red" glaze that covers the majority of its exterior and interior. The vessel features a round, bulbous body that tapers gently toward a slightly flared rim. The surface of the glaze exhibits a rich, mottled texture with subtle speckling, giving it a rustic and aged appearance reminiscent of weathered brick. The material composition is ceramic, and the glaze shows characteristic signs of wood-firing, with natural variations in color and texture that are unique to each piece.
The rim of the mug and the attached loop handle are adorned with a contrasting "falling ash" glaze, which presents as a variegated blend of mossy green, ochre, and dark brown tones. This glaze appears to have settled naturally during the firing process, creating organic patterns and a slightly glossy sheen in places. The handle itself is generously proportioned, with a curved, ergonomic shape designed for a comfortable grip, seamlessly joined to the body at two points. The overall aesthetic is wabi-sabi, emphasizing natural imperfections and the beauty of the firing process.
In terms of dimensions and capacity, this is a 180ml mug. The shape is a classic "big belly" cup form, providing a substantial volume while maintaining a balanced and stable silhouette. The base is slightly concave with a visible foot ring, showing a darker, unglazed or differently glazed finish that is typical of wood-fired pottery, often referred to as "Kang grey." The craftsmanship is evident in the mug's symmetry and the smooth, well-attached handle, indicating it was thrown on a wheel and finished by hand.
The interior of the mug is fully coated with the same warm "old wall red" glaze as the exterior, creating a cohesive look. A clear, soft reflection on the inner surface suggests a smooth, glossy finish that would be practical for holding liquids and easy to clean. The color inside is a consistent, deep reddish-brown, providing a rich backdrop for coffee. The rim's edge is neatly finished and circular, ensuring a pleasant drinking
