This handleless ceramic cup features a large whale moving through layered waves and flowing water. The black-and-ivory palette gives the piece a strong graphic quality, while the carved lines create a steady sense of motion across the surface. The whale’s broad form sits calmly within the surrounding waves, giving the cup a quiet but powerful presence.
Every EBMing piece begins with an original design, with the carving, coloring, and finishing all completed by hand. Each piece is fired at 1240°C, preserving the depth of the carved lines, the character of the hand-applied color, and the subtle variations that come with handcraft.
