Happy Cup - River

Coffee Cup River

by Karen Dawn Curtis

-W. 7 cm x H. 6.3 cm

Thrown by hand in clay coloured by oxide, each of these Happy Cups is unique in texture and character while following the same pattern of form and size. Each handle is hand-pulled in my complimentary oxide-coloured clay. Happy Cups are slightly larger than the Tea Cups and have derived their name from the simple fact that the more tea I can get in a cup, the happier I am!

Fired to 1200ᵒC, this cup is much soft in tone. The interior is reminiscent of pale, dipping willow leaves. The handle, a soothing grey, arcs across the exterior like a river around the light sand of a slow bend.

All my Home Collection are dishwasher safe. Hand washing is recommended for any handmade items. All my Home Collection are designed for hot and cold food and beverages.

The exterior of my Home Collection feels like a sandy stone surface; contrasted by the smooth feel of the glazed interior similar to a shiny pebble. Each of my Happy Cups is handmade with love carrying an imperfection that makes them unique and beautiful in their own right. My hope is you will connect with your Happy Cups, it will bring peace and rest of the countryside, and you will enjoy using it again and again.

Each of my items is unique so the object you will receive will have a slight variation, either with colour, size or shape, then the objects in the photograph, but it will carry the same high standard of craftsmanship and aesthetic.
