"Running Shoes" Footed Cobalt Blue Studio Pottery Mug

This whimsical handcrafted studio pottery mug features a vibrant cobalt blue speckled glaze and a truly unique, sculptural base designed as a pair of brown and black running shoes with white laces. The playful vessel is built with a comfortable curved handle and a slightly flared rim, while the interior is finished with a smooth, matching blue glaze for a polished look. Adding a touch of artisan character, the unglazed bottom of the sneakers and the base of the mug reveal the natural sandy-textured clay and a hand-incised artist's mark. Perfect for fitness enthusiasts or collectors of eccentric ceramics, this durable stoneware piece is a charming conversation starter that brings a sense of fun to any morning coffee or tea ritual.
