Mug with sea urchin motif

This beautifully shaped cup made of Japanese ceramic combines traditional craftsmanship with playful pattern art. The decoration shows a regularly repeated, stylized sea urchin motif in deep indigo blue - a modern interpretation of marine forms that are often found in Japanese textiles(wagara) or ceramics. The abstract sea urchins with their radial lines and dark dots are reminiscent of both flowers and marine organisms - typical of the Japanese flair for combining nature and aesthetics.

The lower part of the cup remains unglazed in a natural terracotta shade and provides a pleasant tactile contrast.
