[shop mugs]( Just a Few Highlights Wolfgang Ceramics [Shop Now]( [Limited Edition Handmade Mug, by Wolfgang Ceramics]( Laura Wolfgang Wolfgang Ceramics (and Food52's senior product manager!) "People are often surprised to hear that each mug takes weeks to make. A single piece generally requires a string of distinct steps, with plenty of time between each step to allow for drying and firing, and rushing through any of them inevitably leads to heartache. This is part of what makes pottery feel so temperamental and unpredictable at times." The Shelter Collection [Shop Now]( [Limited Edition Handmade Mug, by The Shelter Collection]( We really like our matte, velvety glaze…our intention is for the glaze to almost look like stone. —Erin Connelly, The Shelter Collection Julie Hadley [Shop Now]( [Limited Edition Handmade Mug, by Julie Hadley]( Julie Hadley Ceramicist "You never know where you will get inspiration from—the curved shape of a sleeping dog or turning a shape I have been making for a while upside down." SIN [Shop Now]( [Limited Edition Handmade Mug, by SIN]( Not every form that looks aesthetically pleasing is always comfortable. I think a mug is the one functional ware that ceramic will feel comfortable. —Virginia Sin, SIN Jono Pandolfi [Shop Now]( [Limited Edition Handmade Mug, by Jono Pandolfi]( Jono Pandolfi Ceramicist "Surprising fact: They shrink so much more than you think when you fire them. When you start making mugs, you always think you're going to end up with a nice, huge mug that holds a ton of coffee, but you end up with a mini cappuccino mug!" Helen Levi [Shop Now]( [Limited Edition Handmade Mug, by Helen Levi]( It's hard to estimate exactly how long one piece takes, because all the steps are spread out over many days. It's physically impossible to make a piece and have it be finished/ready to use in one day! —Helen Levi, ceramicist Marian Bull [Shop Now]( [Limited Edition Handmade Mug, by Marian Bull Ceramics]( Marian Bull Ceramicist "My most prized tools are my personalized stamp, my respirator (looks like a gas mask, very intimidating and also safe), and the perfect tiny scrap of sandpaper." Farmhouse Pottery [Shop Now]( [Limited Edition Handmade Mug, by Farmhouse Pottery]( Each mug is touched at least 25 times from start to finish. —James Zilian, Farmhouse Pottery IIIVVVYYY Ceramics [Shop Now]( [Limited Edition Handmade Mug, by IIIVVVYYY Ceramics]( Ivy Weinglass IIIVVVYYY Ceramics "I picked up a really fun hack from another ceramicist friend of mine—she suggested using a rolling, adjustable dough cutter. You can adjust the size of the cut so you get an even cut every time." Something to Wrap Your Hands Around They gave us 20 gorgeous mugs and now? The star ceramicists behind this collection are here to tell you what they'll be sipping on all season long. [read more]( [It’s Mug Week!
