a la japonaise ceramic cup 210 ml - earth

Alexandra and Florin, the couple behind POEMI, are passionate self-taught ceramic artists who began their clay journey in 2016 in Sibiu, Romania. With no prior experience, they dedicated themselves to mastering the art of pottery. They started with a small kiln that they keep to this day as a reminder of their humble beginnings, and since have designed custom tableware for restaurants around the world while promoting sustainable and durable ceramics for daily use. Inspired by childhood memories and the beauty of everyday life, their POEMI collections tell unique stories of connection around shared meals: "The plaster on the walls of the house, the passing of seasons which puts its mark on all and everything, the table with the three-legged chairs we used to eat at, the wooden tray where the bread was kneaded."

This handcrafted cup is made from speckled beige stoneware and is perfect for cappuccino, filter coffee, drip or Americano. It is finished in an organic cream glaze made in-house from recycled stoneware and reclaimed wood ash, giving it a natural, raw finish and a warm, earthy character. Because the composition of the wood ash varies from batch to batch, each cup shows its own subtle differences in color and intensity, making every piece truly one of a kind.
