Porcelain cups

These two porcelain cups are decorated with black and white glazes that overlap in the centre vertically. The cylindrical shaped cups are shaped on a potter's wheel. They are thrown until very thin, leaving marks that emphasise the soft quality of porcelain. The handle is very small and situated on the lower half of the cup for an unusual balance. The result is a dotted grey-brown tone evocative of a seal.
