125th Anniversary Cups Made by Borja Moronta

2023 represents our 125th year, to celebrate renowned potter, Borja Moronta has kindly made us a very limited number of his Classic Tapered Cup & Saucer - perfect for your morning coffee. Each cup is stamped with our 125th anniversary mark. Borja's work sells out within hours of being released and so we are extremely privileged to have these available. Borja himself wears our Classic Smock whilst 'throwing.' His ceramic work is a reflection of the ‘state of mind’ he experiences while working with clay and its physical processes. From the mindfulness of throwing to the physicality of preparing clay, or the natural slow pace behind each step that clay follows to become a ceramic piece. Each stage leads to vessels that condense Borja’s upbringing in the rural coast of northern Spain: its colours, textures and pace.
