'Smoke' espresso cups are a small line of designer cups designed by 'bisqit,' a small porcelain studio based in Prague.
Each cup is unique in design and is meant to represent the whimsical and fleeting movements of wisps of smoke. Adorned with different colors and sizes, each handmade piece is crafted by melting pigments directly into the porcelain, which creates a different design each time. Each cup is fired at an extremely high heat to ensure it can withstand both the microwave and the dishwasher, making for convenient use and cleanup.
The espresso cups are a collection inspired by smoke and its "passing wavy existence." The uniqueness of the design process allows for no two cups to look the same, speaking to a group of people who value personally curated items, which represent unequivocal individuality.
