Coffee & Espresso

Handmade ceramic cups for coffee, made in the Viola Beuscher studio in Germany. Every cup is handmade from stoneware clay and fired at 1220 °C, a temperature at which the body vitrifies and stays food-safe without any further sealing. All of them go in the dishwasher.

Which size for which drink

The espresso cups hold 75 ml at Ø 5.5 cm, sized for a single concentrated shot. The coffee cups run from 180 ml to 240 ml, wide enough for a flat white, cappuccino, or filter coffee, with room for latte art. The flat white cup is a case of its own at Ø 8.5 cm and H 5.5 cm with 180 ml, deliberately wide and low so the microfoam has surface and the milk-to-espresso ratio stays right.

The series

Nomi is the cylindrical line in grey stoneware, available with hand-painted black brush strokes, a raw unglazed exterior, or a full ice blue glaze. Yun is the rounded line at Ø 9 cm and 240 ml, glazed edge to edge in a single colour. The Happy Edition carries spray-applied glazes and bold colour gradients. Each cup is handmade, so wall thickness and glaze flow differ slightly from piece to piece.

Single pieces and sets

Most forms are sold individually and as sets of two, four, or six.
