{"product_id":"terracotta-coffee-mug-glazed-hand-carved-texture","title":"Terracotta Coffee Mug — Glazed Clay Mug with Hand-Carved Texture","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThis mug pairs a glazed rim with a hand-carved body, so the first thing you notice is the contrast — a smooth, glossy band at the top giving way to a dense field of fine diagonal hatching carved directly into the clay below. That hatching isn't a single continuous pattern; it's broken by a middle band of short notch cuts, adding a second layer of texture around the mug's widest point and giving the surface real visual rhythm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe barrel-shaped body holds its width evenly from shoulder to base, giving the mug real weight and presence in the hand — this is built as a proper coffee mug, not a small tea cup, with enough capacity for a full serving and enough surface area to appreciate the carving. The glaze is applied only to the rim and interior, which keeps the mug easy to clean while leaving the carved exterior in its raw, tactile state, exactly as it came out of the kiln.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eEvery diagonal line and notch on this mug is cut by hand into leather-hard clay before firing, a slower and more deliberate process than throwing alone. This is part of why hand-carved terracotta pieces carry a different kind of value than smooth, uncarved ones — each mug represents extra time at the workbench, not just at the wheel, and that additional craft is visible in the finished piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eExpect natural variation in the depth and spacing of the carving from mug to mug — that inconsistency is the mark of the tool and the hand behind it, not a defect. Used daily, the mug develops a lived-in character over time, with the unglazed carved section aging slightly differently from the glazed rim, which only adds to its individuality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThis mug suits anyone who wants their everyday drinkware to feel a bit more considered — the kind of piece that gets noticed on a desk or kitchen counter without being loud about it. The combination of glaze and carving also makes it a practical middle ground for people who like the look of raw terracotta but still want an easy-to-clean interior.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li3\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMaterial\u003c\/b\u003e — Natural terracotta clay with glazed rim and interior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li3\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCraft\u003c\/b\u003e — Hand-thrown barrel shape with hand-carved diagonal texture and notch band\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li3\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eOrigin\u003c\/b\u003e — Handcrafted by artisan potters in Udaipur, Rajasthan, India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li3\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBest for\u003c\/b\u003e — Coffee, tea, everyday use, office desk, gifting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li3\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFinish\u003c\/b\u003e — Glazed rim and interior, unglazed hand-carved textured body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eA hand-carved terracotta mug with texture cut into every inch of its body.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Soul Of Soil","offers":[{"title":"2","offer_id":51128748572919,"sku":null,"price":32.23,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0929\/2968\/7799\/files\/pomelli_photoshoot-2_ca75096b-47ec-425c-ab5d-3b0c511069fc.png?v=1788871752","url":"https:\/\/www.soulofsoil.art\/en-eu\/products\/terracotta-coffee-mug-glazed-hand-carved-texture","provider":"Soul Of Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
