Ribbed Base Black Pottery Mug

Handcrafted Clay Drinking Cup | Azamgarh Terracotta Art

This handcrafted black pottery mug features a low, wide silhouette with subtle ribbed detailing around the base. The smooth upper body contrasts with the horizontal textured bands, creating a grounded and versatile everyday cup.

The deep earthy black tone is achieved through the traditional smoke-firing technique practiced in Nizamabad, Azamgarh. Each piece is shaped by hand from natural terracotta clay, preserving organic tonal variations unique to artisan craftsmanship.

Its sturdy form and ergonomic handle make it suitable for tea, coffee, milk, herbal drinks, or everyday beverage use.
