Animal Handle Cup and Saucer, close up

How it is made

A little clay animal for a handle, on a dimpled cup

Each color has its own animal: the whale on pink, the fox on green, the crocodile on yellow and the dog on blue. The walls are dimpled with pinch marks left on purpose and decorated under the glaze with uneven stripes and dots. "Encountering coffee" is written small inside the rim. The cup holds 9.1 ounces, and its oval speckled saucer has room for a cookie.

  • Colored under the glaze

    The colors sit under the glaze, so they stay bright.

  • Pinched texture

    Pinch marks are left on the walls on purpose.

    Japanese potters call it tebineri.

Questions

Help
Will mine look exactly like the photos?

The stripes and dots vary a little from cup to cup, and the pinched dimples never land in quite the same places. Your animal will be the one you picked, with its own pattern around it. Shape, size and the way it is glazed stay as shown, so it will feel in the hand like the one in the photo, and the painting on it will be the one made for yours.

How do I care for it?

Wash by hand with warm water and a soft sponge. Avoid sudden changes of temperature, such as pouring boiling water into a cold cup.

When will it arrive?

Most orders arrive in about 10 to 20 days. The dates above the button are worked out for an order placed today, and we email tracking when the parcel leaves.

What if it arrives damaged or wrong?

Email support@ondostudio.shop within 14 days of delivery with a photo of the piece and the box. We send a replacement or refund that piece, whichever you prefer, and you do not need to send anything back.

Can I cancel or return it?

You can cancel free of charge until your order is packed, usually within 48 hours. Each order is packed for you, so we cannot take returns for a change of mind.
