Named “Bleu,” meaning blue in French, this cup draws inspiration from the quiet beauty of a starry night sky. The deep blue surface develops from a glaze blend containing cobalt oxide, while tin oxide contributes to the appearance of subtle white freckles that gently emerge after firing. These small tonal variations create a soft, atmospheric effect that adds visual depth without overwhelming the design.

Made from dark, iron-rich clay, the cup features a sharper, rounded bottom and a narrow, well-defined body. This silhouette offers a modern and sculptural look while remaining practical for everyday use. The smooth contour makes it comfortable to hold, and the balanced structure supports steady placement on various surfaces.

Each piece is fired in an electric kiln at approximately 1223°C / 2233°F. This controlled firing environment supports consistent results, efficient energy use, and a wide range of stable glaze colours. The final finish is clean, refined, and suited to both contemporary and minimalist table settings. With a capacity of about 220 mL, the cup is ideal for tea, small coffee servings, or warm beverages enjoyed throughout the day.

This cup pairs naturally with muted ceramics, dark-toned plates, wooden trays, or linen textures, making it a versatile addition to home kitchens, tea corners, or workspaces. Its deep colour palette and distinctive form allow it to stand out while still blending harmoniously with modern décor.
