Description

A beautiful cup from Astier's new collection "year of the sheep". This cup has a relief of a pastoral sheep. It has a very fine edge, so nice to drink out of, and an elegant handle. This is a stunning piece to either start your Astier collection or add to your other pieces. It makes a great gift as well!

3 1/4" diameter, 3.75" tall

Astier de Villatte ceramics are entirely made by hand. Watching the process is quite a sight to see. Beautiful hands making these incredible pieces. Made of a black earthenware sourced from the outskirts of Paris, and covered in porcelain. The combination of materials makes for very refined finished pieces with a hint of the hand and process showing through the porcelain. Astier pieces mix beautifully with many different styles- it has a versatility we look for in all the things we carry in our shop.

*Shown with an Antoinette Napkin by Les Indiennes, listed separately.
