A small wooden handled cup, perfect for tea or coffee. This cup has been designed to stack with other pieces from both the Atro-city and Habitual ranges, and is available in 2 different colours: white and citron (yellow).
Also available in a set with a saucer - see drop down box for options!
Atro-city explores the revival of Brutalist architecture, employing classic Brutalist aesthetics like heavy forms and asymmetrical proportions along with design philosophies embodied in the architecture including Form Follows Function and Truth to Materials.
These items are entirely handmade, including the walnut riveted handles which have been individually shaped to fit each cup and riveted to the porcelain.

Training and living in the heart of Brighton has provided Emma not only with skill specialisms in ceramics and wood, but also with a fascination for cityscapes.
This interest is reflected in her functional home wares, which often take inspiration from architectural details. Precise and angular forms are incorporated along with a degree of buildability and a unified combination of materials.
