handmade porcelain espresso cup – ‘RECYCLED’

handmade porcelain espresso cup ‘RECYCLED’

Handmade porcelain espresso cup from our ‘RECYCLED’ collection. This espresso cup is handmade from left over clay scraps which scraps have different colors and the final color becomes a shade of grey. The cup is glazed on the inside with a glaze made from left over glaze rests. The color of the cup and the color of the glaze are each time different since it is made of left over colors which differ. In this way we reuse all the clay and glaze left overs.  

The outside has a satin matt surface and is unglazed. This cup fits perfectly in the hand and is easily to clean. The espresso cup comes carefully wrapped as a gift. 

Dimensions: approx 6 cm high and approx 6 cm diameter
Material: mixed porcelain clays.
Technique: hand formed by slip casting. Glazed on the inside, unglazed on the outside. Fired in a electric kiln for the first time up to 950 degrees Celcius (bisquit) and for the second time un to 1260 degrees Celcius (glazing). High firing makes the porcelain strong and robust.
