Description
This 14-ounce big coffee mug or teacup, or a soup mug has plenty of capacity. How could this not be your favorite mug? A soothing melt of the blue glazes cascades deep purple with white spots gloss glaze making each one unique. This hourglass or belly mug adds volume to the mug & helps keep hot beverages warm longer. I use zinc & lead-free glazes on my kitchen ware, so it is food, microwave, & dishwasher safe. The mug is 3.5 inches diameter at the rim & is 4.5 inches high. It weighs 1 pound 3 ounces.

MOLD POURED MUG. Clay is a very flexible material & thus can be thinned & poured into a mold. Once the clay has cured, the mold can be opened leaving the object (in this case a tall mug). Once out of the mold, the pottery is finished to create a smooth finish. Once the item has been finished it is processed the same way as any other piece of pottery. This mug is one of those purchased mold pieces. FIRING. I fire each piece at least twice. The first is called a bisque firing to remove most of the water, leaving it porous to absorb the glaze. After glazing it is fired to a higher temperature, about 2000F. I often use an underglaze to enhance texture or design, but some glazes will do that all by themselves. GLAZES. Methods of adding eye appeal are endless, beginning with the glaze. On mugs I always use lead & zinc free, dinnerware safe glazes. The end results are not always predictable because where the mug is placed in the kiln can effect its outcome. For example, the same glaze could look different if the mug were in a hotter area. & there are thousands of colors & effects made possible by layering two or more glazes.
