The Spiky Mug by Symmetrical Pottery is Striking
Courtney Scharf — July 5, 2012 — Art & Design
This 'Spiky Mug' by Symmetrical Pottery, an Etsy shop, is protective and daring.
Looking like any other black mug, but decked out in sharply designed spikes, this ceramic piece stands out in a big way. Far more edgy than traditional pottery, the 'Spiky Mug' is bound to get all of the right kind of attention and is fashion-forward in a way that is atypical of this type of product. Each of these pieces are made to order by Scott and Angi, the owners of the online shop, and are priced at $20 each. Although the mugs are available in a slew of colors, something about the black hue highlights the avant-garde nature of the product.
Appealing to those looking to add some style to their morning coffee, this mug is making a splash in the world of ceramics.
