I love the way the carved exteriors resemble wood-working, and how carving the surface preserves the inner profile of the cup and (round) rim. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy works are often inspired by nature, but the trick is finding the right balance of image and subtlety. These mugs suggest a pumpkin, while remaining a cup. The neutral colours keep things modern, while the playfulness is all in the form. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey fit perfectly into a modern kitchen. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite being fully functional, these pieces take a lot of time and patience to make. Each one is a little sculpture, crafted with intention and personality. To be used as a cup and enjoyed as a piece of art. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFood safe\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-wash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e*\u003cem\u003eAvoid boiling liquids! \u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003eDo not microwave\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* The carved surface means parts of these cups are quite thin and could be prone to cracking if exposed to extreme temperature changes.
