mossy rock ceramic natla cup

14x10x8cm stoneware double-handled Natla cup.

Based off my 2020 Weaving Futures Judaica series, this ceramic hand-washing cup was initially made using a mould of the original metal work, and then refined by hand. Though the mould provides the cup's structure, each one is unique in shape and texture, so they are listed as individual items on the webshop. Only two have been made with the mossy glaze.

The Natla was initially designed with transgender Jewish ablution rituals (eg mikvehs and hand-washing) in mind. While the cup can be used for conventional Jewish hand-washing, you can also drink out of it, use it for holding stuff, or something else altogether!

Unlike the other listed 'mossy rock' cup, this one doesn't have a groove carved inside for ease of pouring.

Glaze is food-safe, so it can be used as a mug!!
