Hand-Pinched Orange Cat Ceramic Mug

By artist Elan：I pinch every mug by hand—no boring molds allowed! That wavy, uneven rim? The chubby cat ears? The curly striped tail that doubles as a handle? That’s all me, making sure each mug is one-of-a-kind, just like your favorite furbaby. Then I paint every tiny detail freehand: round pink cheeks, a little button nose, and the cutest tiny orange perched right on its head—like it stole a snack from the fruit bowl!I use Jingdezhen’s classic high-temperature underglaze technique: all the warm orange and cream colors are sealed under a soft matte glaze, so they’ll never fade, chip, or wash away. No sad, faded cat faces here! And yes—this mug is totally microwave and dishwasher safe! I believe cute things should be used, not just put on a shelf to look pretty.
