These tumblers, are thrown on the pottery wheel and hand glazed in Kirikiri glaze.

Kirikiri means sand, and shoreline in te reo Māori, a perfect discription of this earthy glaze. This glaze is a matt glaze, more textural, showing off the natural elements of the clay. The brutalist clay is a hard waring clay, that has a light feel and concrete look.

Flat white tumblers around 9- 10cm high and around 320ml in volume. All our ceramics are made by hand on the pottery wheel and piece by piece will vary.

All Thea ceramics are hand made so sizes and colours vary, they are dishwasher safe and are intended for everyday use.
