Speckled Grey Espresso Cup – Porcelain Inlay
A miniature work of art for your most intense coffee moments. This hand-thrown espresso cup is crafted from Speckled Grey Stoneware, featuring fine mineral inclusions that give the piece a natural, stone-like aesthetic.
Despite its small scale, the cup showcases a detailed Porcelain Inlay: vertical white lines are hand-carved and filled with liquid porcelain, creating a delicate graphic contrast that invites touch. The upper rim and interior are finished with my self-produced Hazelnut Matt glaze, providing a warm, satin feel against the lips and a beautiful transition into the cool grey clay.
Its compact, conical form is designed to retain heat, making it the perfect vessel for a short espresso or a mindful tasting experience.
