Every object offered by Miro Made This is completely made by hand—thrown and trimmed on the potter's wheel, and carefully glazed and finished, piece by piece. Each bears the mark of its maker in subtle variations of curve, form, and texture, as well as those found within the clay body itself. Please note that no two pieces are exactly alike—more sisters than twins: closely related, not exactly duplicates, but still a family.
Collection comprises the mainstays of MMT—the basic forms of teacups, bowls, plates, and carafes that are offered as a recognizable and cohesive body of high-quality work.
Studies are limited editions of different shapes, forms, clay bodies, and glazes that provide Miro with the opportunity to experiment within her chosen medium and expand her practice.
Seconds consists of pieces that have small flaws such as color variations, marks, or inconsistent glazing that renders pieces not suitable for the collection, but nevertheless, still of value. In fact, some favor the greater variations of seconds—depending on a personal preference for uniqueness.
Low Rounded Teacups, French Vanilla / Clear
Low Rounded Teacups, French Vanilla / Clear
A study for some rounded teacups.
These sort of rounded teacups are one of my favorite types of pieces. There's something about how you have to cup their low rounded bases that makes you really aware of the texture of the raw clay body. It's not just your fingertip, but your whole palm that is needed to cradle the form. And if you have small hands like mine, it's often easier to also use both hands. With so much of our world digital and virtual these days, the opportunity to hold something tactile and real that grounds you.
Perfectly sized for: your morning cuppa, your afternoon pick-me-up, or pots de creme for dessert
