Thumb Cup — Woodland
Woodland
You'll receive this exact piece — the one shown in the photos.
A tall tumbler-style cup, perfect for an iced coffee or a cold drink, glazed in Woodland. This Thumb Cup is thrown on the wheel in my home studio in Congleton, Cheshire, with a traditional thumb and finger indent built into the body for a comfortable, secure grip. Once thrown, it's turned and finished by hand the next day, then dried, bisque fired, glazed, and fired again before it's ready to use.
Woodland is a soft green over a rustic sand, taken from the woods close to the studio in early autumn, when the moss is still bright and the leaf litter underneath has gone warm and dry.
Built for iced coffee and cold drinks
- Approx. 9.5cm tall, 8.5cm wide
- Holds approximately 340ml
- Dishwasher and microwave safe — avoid the oven, grill, hob and open flame
This is the exact cup shown in the photos, not a similar one, since every piece is thrown and glazed entirely by hand, small differences in shape, glaze movement and colour are part of its unique character. Once it's gone, it's gone.

Glaze: Woodland
Each piece is handmade, so exact dimensions vary slightly — see the photos above for scale.
The handmade character
Small differences in shape, glaze movement, colour and texture are part of each piece's unique character. An unglazed, sanded base is normal, and fine crazing may appear over years of use — a natural trait of glazed stoneware.
Caring for your piece
Dishwasher and microwave safe. Avoid oven, grill, hob or open flame, thermal shock, and abrasive scourers.
