COLLECTORS series Coquette Tulip

The COLLECTORS series is our playground and dedicated to the hartmud collectors who chase our wares with patience and enjoy the crackling tension of our monthly drops. Here the studio just plays it casual and revisits the good old times of our work history, but beware: deliberately rough finished and born with patina the hartmud Collectors series is definitely not for the sterile crowd. Read more about the Collectors series here.

In contrast to our high performance, ultra-robust and dead-precise Lotus cappuccino cup, the Tulip is lighter and delicate and brings back the early days of hartmud with its distinctive Grunge feeling when each cup on the coffee machine was handthrown on the potters wheel and clone-free, differing slightly in size and volume.
Consequently while being totally fit for purpose for serving coffee, our Tulips might be less barista and latte art focused, and more targeted to stoneware collectors who adhere to the wabi-sabi aesthetic of impermanence and imperfection.

Disclaimer
Before ordering our products please accept our quality and ethics.
With complete disregard for mass-production we have chosen to build traditionally crafted highest quality coffee ware that might bear the signature of the maker through their distinguishing irregularities.
So while you can expect a distinctive design, proverbial robustness, superior handling and high thermic abilities through our high temperature firing, you accept the uniqueness of our ware.
This means every item may have some aesthetic flaws, and when buying our products you happily accept the occasional wrinkles in the clay body, the randomly applied glaze edge or uneven glaze coating, the occasional marks from our hands or instruments, the minimal deviations in the shapes of our design language, and that the raw unglazed bottom may scratch highly polished surfaces such as stainless steel.
The tiny imperfections make up the character of our vessels.
Please be aware that our policy of returns states that the customer bears the cost of shipping back unwanted products.
All that in mind you will certainly head for the right personal decision to become an owner of hartmud rare hard German stoneware.
