Look at the beautiful detailed shape of the mug including a thumbrest and turned lip for easy sipping. The Celtic Motiff is raised, giving a 3D effect. This makes a great gift for any Celtic Design enthusiast!
Each mug holds approximately 16 ounces and measures about and is 5 1/2 inches in height and 4 inches wide at the widest part (excluding handle). These are high-fired stoneware (2385 degrees, Cone 8) for maximum durability. Each piece is lead free, dishwasher and microwave safe. As with all hand crafted pottery the coloring and size will vary from piece to piece, making each piece a one-of-a-kind. Don't forget to check out the other pieces by this same artist by clicking on the link below ("Same Artist Pieces"). We will be adding a collection of motiff mugs, like the one above.
"SAME ARTIST PIECES" (Approximately 60% shipping discount for all additional same artist mugs, click to see all pottery from artist):
Our artist Mr. Rowe, a Louisville, Kentucky native, has been selling his functional stoneware since 1971. He is the former director of Metro Arts Center, taught ceramics at Spalding University and since 1981. In the early eighty's, he pursued a career as a full-time production potter, but in recent years has returned to place more emphasis on his art. "My skills with the materials, which allow me to express myself the way I do, are a direct result of my ability to throw a form repeatedly with consistency and accuracy. That period honed my technical skills."
