Australian Animal Mugs Vol.1

Inspired by the ancient way ceramic artists would use small tiles to sign their work, we’ve taken the design style but instead used tiles to depict Australian animals. The tiles are created using digital 3D sculpting and printing techniques, and then hand-mounted onto the handmade ceramic mugs. We wanted each animal to have a personality, with a distinctive expression that complements their individuality. The gradient glaze, too, is selected to symbolise the animal; its matte finish produces a beautiful and organic look and feel.
