Parceline Ceramic Handmade Drinkware

Some mornings deserve a mug that was made by someone, not something.

Each of these pieces is thrown by hand on the potter’s wheel by Céline Fafard at Parceline Céramique, her studio in Montreal. Céline trained at Montreal’s Centre de Céramique Bonsecours and founded Parceline in 2010. Her work pairs simple, modern forms with real attention to how an object feels in your hand. The result is sturdy pottery you’ll reach for every day.

Both styles are off-white with black speckles, glazed inside and left as raw, unglazed clay on the outside. That raw outside is food safe and lovely to hold. Because every piece is handmade, no two are exactly alike. Expect small variations in shape, speckling and finish. That’s the mark of the maker, not a flaw.

Choose your style:

• Faceted (7 oz / 200 ml): A handleless cup with an angular, faceted body. The shape recalls a traditional drinking glass and gives your fingers a natural grip. The thick walls keep your drink warm while your hands stay comfortable. It’s sized for a cortado, a flat white or a short pour-over. About 3" wide × 3.5" tall.
• Handled (14 oz / 414 ml): A generous mug with a comfortable, ergonomic handle, made for a big latte or a full filter brew. Look for faint spirals left by the clay’s movement on the wheel. They show up more on some mugs than others. About 3.5" wide × 4.5" tall.

Care

• Dishwasher safe
• Not microwave safe. Natural minerals in the clay can spark.
• Avoid sudden temperature changes, such as boiling water into a cold mug.

Made in Montreal, Canada.
