Sea Horizon Mug

Shaped within a studio practice grounded in decades of wood firing, teaching, and sustained making in India, this ceramic cup reflects an approach where drawing, surface, and everyday use come together naturally. The compact, upright form is wheel-thrown with restraint, allowing the cup to feel balanced and steady in the hand. A bold, hand-painted mark moves across the pale surface like a single, confident gesture, emerging as part of the making rather than applied decoration. Crafted in stoneware and wood-fired over long cycles, the surface is influenced by ash, flame movement, and kiln atmosphere, giving the cup quiet depth and subtle variation. Intended for tea, coffee, or mindful sipping, the form offers durability, warmth, and a calm presence shaped through lived studio practice rather than uniform finish
