Handmade Bearded Face Pottery Mug Sculptural Stoneware Cup

Unique handmade studio pottery mug featuring a sculptural bearded face motif applied in relief. Crafted from stoneware with a natural clay body and rich, glossy dark glaze around the rim and interior, contrasted by an earthy, unglazed lower band.

The expressive face — complete with raised nose, beard texture, and whimsical character — gives this mug a folk art / fantasy feel. Clearly hand-thrown and hand-decorated, with natural variations in glaze and form that highlight its artisanal nature.

Unmarked on the base, consistent with studio pottery work.
