Handmade Bird Mug

Each of these bird designs was inspired by a bird that I watched from my home. The red-bellied woodpeckers and nutchtches were enjoying black oil sunflower seeds. The eastern bluebirds were fluttering in a nearby bush. And the great blue herons were nesting in some nearby sycamore trees! 

I hope these mugs bring you a little peace as you sip your morning coffee or evening nightcap… or anytime in between. 

If you want to take it in the go, add a soft silicone lid to your drink to keep it from sloshing out. I love these lids!

These mugs are lovingly hand made. I throw the mugs on the pottery wheel. 

I create the bird designs using a glaze resist. The brown lines between the colors are bare clay, creating a tactile component to using the mug. 

When it’s time to clean, hand wash or place in the dishwasher. 

I personally make each piece in small town Indiana, USA. It’s a joy to handcraft each item. 

This listing is for a mug in the style and design shown, but may not be the exact mug photographed. Because of the handcrafting techniques, variations and irregularities will occur.  Approximate capacity 8-10 fluid ounces.
