Drippy Blue Mug - 275ml | Comedy Roast | Fugly Duckling Collection

This handmade stoneware mug holds 275ml of liquid but weighs a staggering 425g – because apparently, it moonlights as a kettlebell. The handle’s surprisingly comfy, which is lucky, because you’ll need a firm grip and possibly a warm-up stretch before lifting it.

It’s decorated in a soft blue slip, which sounds lovely until you notice the white slip dribbles that are cascading down the outside. It's as if a half-blind apprentice was let loose with a piping bag and no supervision. The drips don’t even start at the edge – they just sort of... begin. Somewhere.

Inside, the blue slip hugs the rim before giving up entirely, leaving the rest of the interior plain stoneware – because consistency is over-rated. This mug is perfect for anyone who appreciates pottery that’s as heavy-handed as it is handmade.
