Humble Earth Mug Black Wide

This hand-thrown mug is a bold and elegant expression of artisanal craftsmanship. Made from stoneware clay and shaped on the potter’s wheel, the mug features a classic cylindrical or slightly bellied form, with a comfortable, hand-pulled handle that invites daily use.

The surface is coated in a deep black glaze, rich and velvety in appearance. Depending on the firing process, the glaze may reveal subtle undertones—charcoal, slate, or hints of metallic sheen where it pools or thins—creating a quiet, moody texture that enhances the depth of the color. Along the rim and handle join, there may be slight breaks in the glaze that expose warm clay tones, adding a hint of contrast and showcasing the handmade nature of the piece.

Inside, the glaze flows smoothly, creating a glossy, drink-safe surface ideal for coffee, tea, or cocoa. The base is left unglazed or only lightly glazed, revealing the raw clay and bearing the potter’s stamp or signature—a final touch of authenticity.

Sturdy, tactile, and minimalist, this black-glazed mug brings a sense of quiet sophistication to everyday rituals. It’s as much a joy to hold as it is to behold.
