There’s something quietly powerful about a vessel that feels like it was shaped from the night sky itself.
This handmade ceramic mug features a deep metallic black glaze layered with subtle speckled textures that shift between charcoal, gunmetal, and soft mineral blue depending on the light. Each curve carries the mark of the maker… organic, grounded, and beautifully imperfect in the way only true hand-thrown ceramics can be.
Designed without a handle, this piece invites a more tactile experience. Cradle it between your palms and let the warmth of tea, coffee, or cacao become part of the ritual. The rounded form makes it equally suited for slow mornings, evening wind-downs, or creative desk moments.
And when it’s not holding your favorite brew, it transitions effortlessly into a sculptural pen holder, brush cup, or altar vessel… bringing artistry into everyday spaces.
Maker Story
Maker: Cindy – CS Moss & Mud
Cindy is a Prineville resident and the artist behind CS Moss & Mud. She first began her pottery journey in 2017 before stepping away due to life’s demands. In April 2025, she returned to the wheel and quickly rediscovered her deep love for working with clay.
Today, Cindy creates from her home pottery wheel while collaborating with a local studio to fire her finished pieces. Her dream is to one day have her own kiln and studio space right here in Prineville.
The wheel can be challenging, but the transformation of clay into functional art makes every moment worthwhile.
We’re honored to share Cindy’s work inside Fae Fire Shop and invite you to experience the heart behind each handmade piece.
