Hand Thrown Ceramic Mug

Description

Ælfric (Old English origin) meaning “elf ruler.”

This would have been an elven rulers favorite mug for toasting returning knights or new children.  Hand thrown and altered with handle and texture, this mug was then fired to cone 6 (2100 degrees Fahrenheit) to ensure it will last an elven lifetime. The black-brown under-glaze and complementing cream dip fits well in the forests of old England or where ever you choose to rule.

Slight imperfections are a part of handmade pottery and add character to the pieces I make. This is something that you cannot find in lifeless, factory made ceramic ware – but you knew that already, and that is why you are here!

I do accept personalized and custom requests, contact me for more information!
