Why buy handmade ceramic espresso cups?
Dishwasher safe and Microwave safe
All cups and mugs are sturdy and built to last. No need to hand wash!
Unlike Anything in a Shop
Every piece is handmade in Wollongong by one woman - Rhiannon Gill. Each piece is truly unique. You won't see ceramics like this at the supermarket.
Unique, Food Safe Glazes
Rhiannon creates her own glazes and tests thoroughly before hand pouring and brush glazing. Colours shift and sparkle, with no two truly identical.

Questions about handmade espresso mugs?
They hold 100ml. That's the right size for a double shot espresso, a short black, a macchiato, or a piccolo - small enough that the coffee stays hot, solid in the hand. If you want something with a handle, the Ceramic Coffee Mugs are the next step up.
Yes. A piccolo sits in the 80-100ml range, and these cups hold 100ml - right at home with one. There's no separate piccolo cup in the range; this is it.
Yes. Every cup is made at the studio in Bellambi - slip cast from porcelain, glazed by hand, then fired twice, once for the bisque and once for the glaze.
Yes, both. They're fired to cone 6, which is a high-temperature firing that makes the porcelain hard and non-porous - so it stands up to the dishwasher and the microwave without any fuss. They're also suitable for commercial use, so a café dishwasher routine isn't a problem.
