This hand-thrown ceramic mug by local artist CS Moss & Mud features an intricate blue floral pattern wrapping around a soft ivory base. The design feels like ink sketched by hand, petals unfolding layer by layer, creating depth, movement, and a timeless heirloom feel.
The handle-free form invites you to cradle your drink, warming your palms with every sip. It turns morning coffee into a pause. Green tea into a ritual. Evening cocoa into something slower and softer.
And when it’s not holding your favorite brew? It transitions beautifully into a pen holder, makeup brush cup, or creative desk companion.
Functional art. Everyday ritual. A little bloom on your countertop.
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.
