low angle of a large cup in black clay, still leathery, with a short foot ring, rounded wide base, and then sharp angle in to a narrower lip. the teacup gorilla word mark is hand carved one word in slab serif caps above the other in a cursive script. The teacup e is lowercase and rotated slightly forward. The cup handle is a small ring sticking out the side.

Bitters (12) is just fine on her own, but when a carnivorous house swallows her whole, she'll need more than her lock picks to break out. To survive a vicious baby cabinet attack, escape the attic of doom, and harness an unruly elevator, Bitters must overcome anxiety & open her ❤️.
