Espresso Cup — Cornflower

A handmade espresso cup thrown for a short, strong coffee, in the Cornflower glaze. The cups below are the exact pieces currently available, so you can choose the one that feels right for you.

The shape

Each Espresso Cup is thrown on the wheel with a compact body and thumb and finger indents pressed into the sides for grip, sized for a short, strong coffee, then turned and finished by hand the next day.

The glaze

The one that started it all. A soft cornflower blue poured over white, with the clay left to show through at the edges so it never looks too neat. It is the glaze most people reach for first, and the one that suits almost any kitchen.

6.5cm tall, 6.5cm across · Holds approximately 100ml

Every piece is thrown and finished by hand, so small differences in shape, glaze movement, colour and texture are part of its unique character.
