Christmas Mug Espresso Cup, Handmade Christmas Gift, Pottery Mug

This Christmas espresso cup is painted with a red-and-green kokina flower motif, sized for a proper short shot rather than a full mug of coffee. It's the small-format cousin to our full-size Christmas mugs, made for people who want the holiday spirit in a two-ounce dose.

Why the kokina flower, and why it works here

The kokina motif has long been associated with December — its deep red plays naturally against evergreen, which is exactly the palette this cup uses. Each flower is painted by hand, so the exact placement of petals shifts slightly from cup to cup.

Handmade vs. printed: the espresso-cup version

Printed espresso cups get their pattern wrapped around a blank after firing; this one is hand-painted before the glaze is set, so the color is fused into the surface rather than sitting on top of it.
