A hand holds a small mug against a lavender background. The mug has a concave shape, wider at top and bottom than in the middle. It’s got a round badge of raised clay, the badge has the initials MG stamped in my favourite fancy font (Victorian style stone stamps) in the middle and round dots around the edge. The indents on the badge are a mid brown colour. I’ll use underglaze to get a darker colour next time. The main mug body is glazed in a turquoise colour with brown specks that ran in the firing. The husband chose the glaze combo, it’s his favourite. The glaze is very light colours at the rim where the turquoise pulled down revealing the winter wood base. I’m going to work on making that less noticeable.
Made a big and little version of this for the husband’s last birthday. He uses the big one every day 🥰
Badge: manganese wash full strength wiped back
Glazes: winter wood, power turquoise
