Mug with silver & orange stripes

This silver mug with orange stripes has a cool, pop style and is made by Japanese potter Yoshimitsu Nakasono.

The inside surface of the mug is smoothly finished in a silver glaze. This gives a beautiful sparkle and shine. The outside surface has a matt finish which is comfortable to hold. The hand crafted, uneven shape, along with the hand painted horizontal stripes, creates a unique look.

It is the perfect mug for drinking tea or coffee. You might even want to use this mug for cold drinks, because of its modern, poppy style. The combination of silver and orange colors creates a striking presence on your dining table and in your cupboard. 

Yoshimitsu Nakasono is a potter as well as a trend maker. His ceramics bring a new style into your daily space.
