Sgraffito Cup with Gold Rim
Sgraffito Cup with Gold Rim
Party season is approaching and I have cocktails and sparkle on my mind! These handmade ceramic cups are perfect for all sorts of drinks and their real gold lustre rim makes them extra special for a celebratory bevvy.
Thrown on the potters wheel from white stoneware clay, the cups are trimmed and then painted with a coat of underglaze when leatherhard. The design is then carved through the colour to reveal the white clay below in a technique called sgraffito. They are fired, glazed and fired again. Finally I apply gold lustre to the rim and fire them for a third time.
