Description:
This cup and saucer are an exquisite pairing of circular forms. The saucer has a raised lip and the cup exemplifies the delicate nature of Takashi Endo’s ceramics. Handcrafted from purion clay, the cup and saucer are united in their rough, speckled effect which results from Endo’s favoured firing process. This organic texture heightens an awareness of the cup and saucer’s materiality.
As all products are handmade, sizes and colour may vary slightly.
