Pairing 19th century pottery design with unique, old-world inspired details, the charming Low Cups would make a lovely addition to any tabletop. These delicate pieces come to us from renowned ceramicist Astier de Villatte's historic Paris workshop, housed in what was once the atelier of Napoleon's own silversmith.There, each of these one-of-a-kind mugs are handcrafted from black terracotta following old-school techniques passed down for generations. Along with the brand’s signature milky white glaze, they're finished with “boy” or “girl,” spelled out in blocky, vintage lettering taken from celebrated designer John Derian’s collection of antique images and calligraphy. Great for serving coffee or tea, we love the perfectly imperfect Boy and Girl Low Cups mixed in with other dishes for an eclectic serveware collection. •4"W x 3"D x 2.5"H •black terracotta clay •white glaze •vintage image •handwash only •not microwave safe •handmade •john derian with astier de villatte •paris
