The Form: A study in depth and tide. Thrown on the wheel in a rich brown stoneware, the Mer Mug features a finely ribbed body wrapped in a deep cobalt underglaze. The interior, lip, and upper handle are finished in a smooth, glossy white glaze that cascades down to meet the textured blue, while the base remains unglazed, exposing the warm, organic grain of the natural clay.

The Spirit: Inspired by the quiet depth of the ocean. This vessel brings an elemental, serene presence to your daily beverage ritual.

The Making: Wheel-thrown and meticulously hand-ribbed on the wheel. The distinct interplay between the velvety blue underglaze, dipped white glaze, and exposed raw clay foot records the physical discipline of the studio and the unpredictable nature of the kiln.
