Mate

This mate cup was crafted from myrtle wood, with an organic shape and warm reddish-brown tones reflecting the earth. It combines hand carving and fine polishing techniques with a tung oil finish. Inspired by nature and indigenous traditions, it makes mate more than a drink, and rather a ritual connecting past and present.
