Handmade Cup - Frosted Earth Seloura #1 - OOAK

Frosted Earth Handmade Ceramic Seloura Cup - 20oz Artisan Drinking Vessel

Experience the art of slow drinking with this one-of-a-kind handmade ceramic Seloura cup. The name "Seloura" draws inspiration from two ancient words: the Hebrew "selah" meaning "pause," and the Arabic "noura" meaning "light"—an invitation to pause in the light of each moment.

This handcrafted 20oz vessel features our signature Frosted Earth glaze—a soft, creamy white finish with subtle speckling. This experimental piece explores organic texture through hand painted dots and undulations that create a landscape of gentle tactile exploration across the entire surface.

Each Seloura cup is truly individual, with the unique altered texture creating valleys and peaks that invite your hands to explore. The asymmetric form cradles comfortably in your hands, while the handleless design encourages you to pause, connect directly with the warmth of your beverage, and drink mindfully—perfect for Turkish coffee, ceremonial tea, pour-over coffee, or your favorite sipping chocolate.

More than just a drinking vessel, this artisan cup becomes a grounding presence in your daily routine—a beautiful reminder to pause in the light, feel the sculpted texture beneath your fingertips, and be fully present. The magic continues inside, where the Frosted Earth glaze coats the curves of the walls, creating a secret glacier cave landscape—an inner depth revealed only to the drinker.

This piece is part of the Playground Collection—where I experiment with new techniques and glaze combinations. It's not flawed, just exploratory, and offered at a reduced price to reflect its role in my creative journey.
