An ode to softness in structure. The AALTO Mug is hand-thrown with a fluid, wavy silhouette – a form that gently follows the curve of your fingers and settles into your grip just right.
Named after Alvar Aalto, it echoes the flowing lines of his iconic glassware and architecture – organic but intentional, familiar but unexpected. The shape isn’t just visual: it’s tactile. It makes you want to hold it, to linger a little longer over every sip.
Glazes layered to echo the shoreline, ‘Seafoam’ begins with a soft turquoise that drips down the rim like tidewater, breaking momentarily into a blush of pale pink, like foam touched by sunset. Below, a flecked sandy beige anchors the piece, grounding the palette in warmth. Glossy, fluid, and full of movement – like sea meeting land, captured mid-wave.
Sized for a flat white, but just as easygoing with a long black, herbal tea, or something stronger. Each one is made slowly, in small batches – meaning no two curves are exactly the same. Just like your habits, your hands – each is a little different, and all the better for it.
Dishwasher safe. Designed for daily use, and daily joy.
