Wildflowers Mug
Description
This wheel-thrown stoneware mug features hand-carved sgraffito wildflowers that wrap around the surface like a small meadow in bloom. Tall stems, open petals, and layered leaves rise from the base of the mug, creating a gentle landscape that brings movement and life to the form. The flowers are finished in warm orange tones with soft green leaves, standing out against a creamy natural clay body.
A soft, layered glaze gathers near the rim in pale greens and subtle earthy tones, echoing the colours of spring growth. The glaze transitions naturally into the carved surface below, allowing the sgraffito lines and underglaze details to remain crisp while still feeling integrated into the clay.
The rounded form sits comfortably in the hand, with a balanced handle and a slightly curved body that enhances the organic character of the design. Each mug is individually carved and glazed, making every piece a small, functional artwork that celebrates the quiet beauty of wildflowers returning each spring.

Note
All crystals and ceramic works offered by Atelier Lithic are inherently unique. Variations in size, colour, surface texture, and form are natural and should be expected.
Crystals are natural materials formed in the earth and may include surface irregularities such as natural fissures, internal veils, growth marks, contact points from where the crystal was attached to the host rock, or areas where the specimen was mined or extracted. These features are part of the crystal’s natural formation and are not considered defects. Defects are disclosed within the item description.
For crystals:
- When a listing includes numbered options (for example, 001, 002, etc.), each number corresponds to a specific crystal shown in the photos. Selecting a number means you will receive that exact crystal.
- When a crystal is shown as a group or range and sold as a quantity of one without numbered options, the images represent examples of what is available. You will receive one crystal, selected from the group, with natural variation.
For ceramics:
- All ceramic pieces are one of a kind. Unless otherwise stated, you will receive the exact piece shown in the listing photos.
If you ever want confirmation before purchasing, feel free to reach out. We're always happy to clarify or provide additional images.
