The black on this mug comes from terra sigillata made from a ball of manganese-rich New Mexico clay my friend gave me. After they’re done firing, I lightly sand the exterior of each mug with a fine-grain sandpaper. The handles become smooth and soft to the touch.

An artful, handmade mug by Osa Atoe. It is narrower at the top than at the bottom and is painted matte black and dark red with faded aqua accents. The handle is black, fluid and smooth. There is a white chevron band of decoration along the bottom.

Side view of the same mug. From this angel, we see two aqua Vs pointing up and down at each other and dark red triangles pointing left and right at each other, all converging in the center. The background is black. There are small tactile dotted details as well.
