Bronze Pottery 8th or 9th Anniversary Gift, Handmade Ceramic Cardinal Bird Cup, Pottery Whiskey or Wine Tumbler, Moroccan Boho
My handmade stoneware whiskey or wine cup tumblers make great bronze eighth, or pottery ninth, wedding anniversary gifts for your husband or wife. Toast your wedding anniversary in style with a 100% handmade and wheel-thrown whiskey tumbler. This ceramic cup has two cardinal birds separated by a geometric iron grate pattern, in bronze, black, and amber gold glossy glazes.
The photo shows the actual piece you will receive. Expect slight perfect-imperfections, as each piece is 100% made by hand. My process embraces a wabi-sabi style aesthetic. My pieces embrace the artist's touch resulting in a rustic, imperfect nature, on purpose. No two pieces are alike.
I hand painted with lead-free, non-toxic glazes. The layers of patterns are reminiscent of Mediterranean and Moroccan old world antiquities. This spiritual bird reminds us when cardinals appear, loved ones are near.
Elevate your nightcap with this creative alternative to crystal glassware. A functional piece of ceramic pottery makes a beautiful gift for anniversary, couples, housewarming, wedding spiritual healing, birthday, friends, Christmas, hostess, and more.
**SHIPPING NOTE** - I will refund postage overages, if applicable, for multi-items shipped together.
Once the clay is bone dry, I fire to bisque in my small home studio kiln. Bisque firing takes about 9+ hours. Once the bisque firing was complete, I hand painted three overlapping layers of different glazes, resulting in this unique multidimensional look. I bisque fired a second time to set the layers (another 9+ hours). Once the second bisque was complete, I painted the final glaze, allowed to dry, and then fired again in the final stage (another 9+ hours).
Caring for your piece:
» Dishwasher safe, however hand-washing is recommended. In order to prolong the glaze color, sheen, and overall durability, I recommend hand-washing with a mild detergent, like Dawn. Prolonged exposure to harsh detergents could eventually affect the glaze color.
» Microwave safe, but take care, as pottery can get hot.
» Do not place in oven or on stove top.
» Do not pour boiling water, as thermal shock could occur.
» The glaze is food safe, lead-free, and non-toxic.
» Ceramic pottery should be treated with care, as it can break, chip, or crack if dropped.
Give as a gift, or bring some original artwork to your own decor with a unique and beautiful pottery piece!
