Kaia Teacup

A hand thrown stoneware teacup, fired to cone 6 on the Garden Island of Kaua'i. If you love having tea ceremonies but are afraid of the gentle nature of teacups, then stoneware teacups are for you - they are rugged and durable, yet they still exude the beautiful natural feeling of holding a handmade piece. 

The Kaia teacup has hues that remind us of the ocean - green, blue, on a natural sandy base. 

What is Stoneware?

Stoneware pottery is fired at high temperatures to make it strong, hard, and resistant to liquids (non-porous). It is made from clay, but it is more durable than other kinds of pottery and earthenware. The reason it is called "stoneware" is because of its stone-like qualities, so you can expect something that is rugged, durable, and exudes natural feeling. 

Care instructions

While stoneware and the glaze I use is 100% food-safe, microwave safe, and dishwasher friendly, to retain the beautiful colors, I do recommend hand washing and not using them in microwaves. Although stoneware is tough, it could still chip if it is bashed so please handle your pots with care.
