{"product_id":"terracotta-coffee-cup-handmade-spiral-ridged-body","title":"Terracotta Coffee Cup — Handmade Clay Cup with Spiral Ridged Body","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThis terracotta coffee cup is thrown entirely by hand on a traditional potter's wheel, and the ridges spiralling around its body are the fingerprint of that process — each groove pressed in as the clay turns, not stamped or moulded afterward. The rounded belly narrows gently into a wide, comfortable rim, making it equally suited to a strong filter coffee, a slow morning chai, or a quick espresso-style pour whenever you need something warm in hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eUnglazed and completely natural, the clay stays porous, which means it breathes. Hold it and the cup feels cool even when the drink inside is hot — a small, physical reminder that you're using something the earth made, not a factory. Terracotta drinkware has been part of Indian daily life for centuries, valued for exactly this quality, and this cup carries that same simplicity forward: no synthetic coating, no added chemicals, nothing between the clay and your drink.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe curled handle is pulled and attached by hand, sized for a full three-finger grip so the cup sits securely even when it's full to the rim. Because each piece is shaped individually on the wheel rather than cast from a mould, small variations in the ridge spacing, the curve of the handle, and the exact height of the cup are completely normal — proof of a human hand at work, not a production-line defect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThis cup fits naturally into a daily routine, whether that's the first coffee of the morning, an afternoon chai break, or simply switching out plastic and ceramic mugs for something that ages and feels more alive over time. As with all terracotta, the surface will darken slightly with use and develop a soft patina — part of the character of owning something handmade rather than manufactured.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eChoosing a piece like this also means supporting a slower, more traditional way of making things. Each cup passes through several stages — throwing, ridging, sun-drying, and kiln-firing — spread across a number of days rather than minutes, and every stage is done by a skilled artisan rather than a machine. For anyone looking to move away from mass-produced drinkware toward something with real provenance, this cup offers exactly that kind of story behind a simple, everyday object.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li3\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMaterial\u003c\/b\u003e — 100% natural unglazed terracotta clay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li3\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCraft\u003c\/b\u003e — Hand-thrown on a traditional potter's wheel, spiral-ridged by hand\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, chai, filter coffee, everyday desk use, gifting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li3\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFinish\u003c\/b\u003e — Natural unglazed clay with visible hand-thrown ridge texture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eA handmade terracotta cup that turns a daily coffee or chai into something a little more deliberate.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Soul Of Soil","offers":[{"title":"2","offer_id":51128731533559,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0929\/2968\/7799\/files\/pomelli_photoshoot-2.png?v=1788869039","url":"https:\/\/www.soulofsoil.art\/en-us\/products\/terracotta-coffee-cup-handmade-spiral-ridged-body","provider":"Soul Of Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
