11. Swan mug













11. Swan mug
The exterior is glazed in a light blue gloss, soft and tranquil like a pale morning sky. Embedded within the surface are flowing black crystal formations — adding rich visual texture and a sense of quiet movement. These dark crystal patterns contrast beautifully with the delicate blue, giving the surface a moody, dreamlike depth.
A carved gothic window adorns the mug, its pointed arch and refined lines suggesting an ancient chapel or sacred space. This architectural element offers a focal frame, adding structure and an old-world reverence to the otherwise organic flow of the glaze.
Around the base, vine carvings twist and curl, giving the impression of slow, living growth — like ivy creeping up stone walls. They root the design in nature, adding movement and grounding the celestial feel of the upper glaze.
The handle is adorned with brass-like filigree appliqués, delicate and ornate, with the appearance of aged gold catching the light — regal and slightly antique in spirit. At the bottom of the handle, white appliqué bird wings curve outward, feathered and graceful, evoking themes of flight, purity, and transformation.
Inside, the mug is finished with a creamy lemon drop matte glaze, soft and warm, a gentle citrus yellow that contrasts beautifully with the cool exterior. The interior glaze subtly echoes the yellow tones of the painted swan, the mug’s focal point — a beautifully rendered swan with creamy white feathers and golden-yellow accents. The swan, with its elongated neck and poised elegance, appears serene yet commanding, its presence adding grace and a quiet majesty to the design.
