THE AARNIO ESPRESSO CUP - in 'Blue Saffire'

Round, joyful, and a little bit space age. The AARNIO Espresso Cup is hand-thrown with a generous, rounded body and a tapered neck, creating a playful silhouette that’s as much about feel as it is about form. It’s like holding a small, sculptural object – one that just happens to deliver caffeine.

Named after Eero Aarnio, it echoes the optimistic curves of his 1960s designs – bold, minimal, and not afraid to have a little fun. The shape keeps warmth in and aromas close, making it ideal for a short, rich espresso. A little retro, a little future – the AARNIO is for mornings that deserve more than ‘just another mug’.

Glazed in ‘Blue Saffire’, a deep, glossy royal blue with just enough drama. Blue Saffire is bold but not brash — especially striking against this white clay body, where the colour stays sharp and luminous. Bright, smooth, and made to stand out in all the right ways.

Handmade in small batches, so each one carries its own subtle variation – in curve, glaze, and attitude.

Dishwasher safe. Built for daily rituals, and better days.
