Large high-temperature ceramic mug made by Mario Hernández
Technique: Sgraffito ceramic and glazed inside

Gray

Dimensions: 8 cm x 11.5 cm

Handmade in Oaxaca

These pieces were created with the intention of being an extension of the existing project of clay/ceramic earrings and accessories.
They are made entirely by hand (without the help of a mold or lathe) with the visible intention that each one has a free and organic shape.

Inspired somewhat by tube corals found on the seafloor, the ceramic material used is a white clay fired at a medium temperature, with an internal glaze that acts as a barrier to filtration. It features a rough-textured exterior painted with slips and hand-sgraffitoed on the front and back with themes from Mexican popular culture such as skulls and roosters. (The cat mug only has sgraffito on one side.)
