Some mornings the Dhauladhar disappears into cloud and the sky turns the colour of deep water. This mug was made for exactly that kind of morning — the one where you wrap both hands around something warm and just wait. It holds stillness the way the hills hold mist.

Wheel-thrown on a speckled stoneware body, the interior shows a gloss blue-grey glaze that pools lighter at the spiral centre and deepens toward the walls. The exterior carries the same glaze, breaking to a sandy, unglazed cream near the foot ring. The strap handle echoes the glaze's two tones. Fired to approximately 1220°C (cone 6).

“That unplanned swirl, that crooked handle — they are the story of the hour spent making it.”

Handmade by Madhumita Chatterjee at her studio in Rakkar, Himachal Pradesh — wheel-thrown, glazed, and fired in small batches beneath the Dhauladhars. The photographs show the exact piece you’ll receive.
