This charming ceramic cup will put a smile on your face every time you use it. The hand-painted stripes outside and circles inside bring positive vibrations, and so does the wide, ribbon-like handle. It is generously sized, too, fitting almost two cups of liquid. Sip your latte from it, but it’s equally great for gazpacho, or oatmeal. It is glossy and nicely smooth all over, except for the bottom, which is left raw and unfinished.

It is hand-thrown by a couple of potters in Northern Moravia and fired in their home kiln. They use local earthenware and create each mug individually, so there are slight variations, and no two will look alike.

Check out their other style, a tall striped mug, and the other two colors of this cup.
