Many people maintain that they cannot function before a morning cup of coffee, so wouldn't it be so fitting to see one of these Artceram Cup washbasins in their bathrooms? The concept of creating an enlarged ceramic mug specifically to be used as a sink has the potential to be a kitschy one, yet these surprisingly elegant examples prove otherwise.
There are a couple of different models of the magnificent mug fixture which include a short elevated basin and an elongated freestanding one. Both embody a graceful flare towards the upper rim and sweep fluently into a deep depression around the central drain. The oversized handles handsomely round out the extra large replicas of the archetypal teacup, providing the perfect place to hang a hand towel from these whimsical Artceram Cup washbasins.
