Porcelain Pottery Mug with Black Birds and Grapes/Green Liner

This charming black birds and grapes mug holds approximately 10 oz and is 3.25" tall x 3.5" wide. Dishwasher/microwave safe. Signed "Sullivan, Canada" on the bottom.

I make my mugs out of a white porcelain clay body. I throw them on the potter's wheel, trim the bottoms with a foot ring so the bottoms are glazed as well. Each handle has been pulled and attached to the cup individually, so each cup has great character. The exterior decoration is a transfer technique which is a silkscreening technique. The patterns are sealed permanently into the clay by the glazing process. A clear glaze is over the exterior, a deep jade green coloured liner glaze cheers you up.

As with all porcelain pottery avoid dramatic temperature changes; no oven, do not freeze. Dishwasher, microwave safe. Please appreciate the slight imperfections that make hand made pottery so great.
