PRE-ORDER Protest Mug
THIS IS A PRE-ORDER, SO IT HAS NOT BEEN MADE YET WHICH MEANS IT COULD BE A FEW WEEKS BEFORE IT SHIPS.
The images below are just quick pics of the pieces in progress. They ARE NOT YET FINISHED. They will be fired, glazed and fired again.
When ordering, I will need to know WHAT PHRASE you would like and WHAT ANIMAL and if you have a specific color you would like the interior of the mug to be glazed.
For options or ideas, please see my instagram.
PLEASE DM me on Instagram @modernminihomestead or @modernminihomesteadceramics with the details. These are all handmade and made to order, so they may not look exactly like the images below.
CHOOSE short (approx 4 1/2” height) or tall (approx 6” height) below.
“Sgraffito” is an artistic technique in which a layer of color (usually slip or underglaze) is added on top of the clay while it is still leather-hard. Then the top layer is scratched or carved away to show the clay underneath and to reveal a pattern or design. Once the piece has dried, it is fired in a kiln. A glossy glaze is added and the piece is fired again to a higher temperature.
If you look closely, you can see where all the clay was carved away. Its a long process! Each piece is carved by hand without patterns - these are all my own freeform drawings. Each piece is completely unique and one of a kind. So, even if you see a few mugs with similar drawings, no two are the same.
It is a piece of art.
*All of my work is handmade using slabs, pinching or coiling methods so you may see how my hands manipulated the clay with their perfect imperfections. They can be put in the microwave or the dishwasher, but as with any handmade item, they will last much longer with handwashing and gentle care.
Each piece varies.
