Nothing beats a good mug and these ones really steal my heart. They're kind of squat and wide, and the full circle of a handle is so pleasing to use. I just stick my finger through the handle and cup the mug like I'm never going to put it down. The clever shape coupled with the glaze, not quite a satin or a matte, makes for an addicting tactile experience. These are approximately 4.5" diameter and 2.75" tall, though there is a little variation in size. The diameter of the handle is about 1". The walls are about 3/16" thick. These are solid cups that are impossible to chip (ok, but don't actually try it!) and are made to withstand industrial dishwashers at restaurants. Each cup is handmade so there are little variations in size, shape, and color. I love the wabi-sabi quality of them, and they're especially adorable when you stack them.
Luscious Porcelain is a local ceramicist who is the darling of the restaurant industry. You may have had the pleasure of using her ceramics at Berlu, Mae, Dame, Langbaan, and several other local restaurants. If you've eaten food off her dishware, you know how special they are. They are very heavyweight but encompass a fragility in their shape. They reflect nature in that they are all almost identical but have slight variations.
Colors (from top to bottom of the stack, left to right):
Yellow: Almost a dull amber or sand
Green: More of a chartreuse, bordering yellow and green
White: with a pool of maroon in the bottom
Mauve: light pink to gray-pink-ish. There's more variation between the mauve dishes than in any other color
Gray: Kind of a brownish-gray, the sort of gray you get when you mix purple and yellow
Order of colors in second photo, clockwise from top left: green, yellow, mauve, gray, white.
