Hand-built teacup from Los Angeles-based artist Chie Fujii. Drawing inspiration from her background in fine art and sculpture work, Chie seeks to elevate the principles of wabi sabi in a modern, attractive, and lighthearted way. This "drawing" cup features hand-etched lines alongside a wabi-style glaze on the cup's lip.
The lines and drawings—unique to each cup—reflect her time learning English as a second language when she first moved to Los Angeles. She particularly includes positive thoughts in her drawings, such as words of beauty, morning, and joy. Porcelain. Hand-built and fired in Los Angeles.
