Unique Ocean Inspired Porcelain Teacups

The bold Seahorse looks out to the waiting world as you start your day with coffee or tea, and our Sea Urchin gathers your thoughts at the end of the day as you reflect on accomplishments and dreams for tomorrow.

And if that’s too philosophical, then just enjoy this grand design with friends amid a pleasant afternoon visiting and talking about mutual acquaintances, politics, and religion over a cup of tea!

Our Porcelain Teacup "Improves on Mother Nature"

At nearly 8 ounce capacity, this porcelain teacup design’s Sea Urchin “skin” outer shell is formed off a direct casting from a Sea Urchin purchased at a shell shop on the southern Oregon coast.  The bold Seahorse porcelain tea cup handle is attached in a separate hand-crafting procedure and it too was cast directly off an actual seahorse specimen, with a loop and a twist or two added to the tail for good measure.

We think you’ll enjoy your daily dose of caffeine a bit more when it starts a little closer to nature using our American-made Sea Urchin and Seahorse porcelain Teacups!

Our handcrafted porcelain teacups are microwave safe and dishwasher friendly. (Because they are works of art, you may choose to wash your seahorses and sea urchins by hand!)

Handcrafting Our Porcelain Teacups "How-To Video"

We've prepared a short video (1:59) at this link of the processes we go through to produce our Sea Urchin and Seahorse porcelain teacup.  This video was shot in our Salem, Oregon studio and demonstrates some of the tools, processes, and procedures we use to create each teacup, by hand.

Environmentally Responsible Studio Production - (We're "Green")

Since we began, all our studio production has been "green".  We promote eco-sustainable studio practices such as 100% Renewable Energy usage (Zero Carbon Footprint), extensive recycling, use of locally produced raw materials, and bio-degradable packaging and shipping materials, as well as complex cool air ventilation systems taking advantage of our ultra-clean Oregon air to refresh our studio's space.

Handcrafted in USA

We make each piece.  One.at.the.time.   It is a process filled with love and attention and expectation that what we make will be used on your table, daily, in the times that matter most with friends and family.  We expect our artistry will start conversations for generations to come, and so we take time and care in the creation of each one of our designs.  

Our studio in Salem, Oregon once was a vocational trades & technical schoolhouse located in Portland during the 2nd half of the 20th century.  We've converted it to a sunlit filled art and production studio.  Our hope is that the tradition of Made in USA quality and heartfelt practical artistry is reflected in each piece we handcraft for you.
