Rustic Orange Mug by Heather Paris<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Albany Slip Brown under Honey Flux is the star of this beautifully crafted stoneware mug by ceramic artist Heather Paris. This classic glaze pairing transforms a simple vessel into a warm, inviting piece of functional art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The top half of the mug is coated in Albany Slip Brown, a glaze known for its deep, earthy orange tones. Over this, a layer of AMACO Honey Flux is applied along the rim, allowing the glaze to melt and run in soft, creamy drips down toward the body. This gentle flow creates a natural transition between the vibrant orange above and the speckled base below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bottom half features MAYCO Winterwood, a glaze that produces a rich, speckled surface in shades of beige and brown. This grounding, earthy texture contrasts beautifully with the warm glow of the upper section, giving the mug a balanced, harmonious look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wheel-thrown from durable stoneware and carefully glazed by hand, this piece feels as good to hold as it does to look at. Fired to bring out the full richness of each glaze, it\u2019s strong enough for everyday use while retaining the charm and individuality of handmade ceramics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The result is a rustic yet refined mug that feels like it belongs in a cozy kitchen, perfect for morning coffee, evening tea, or a comforting hot chocolate. The combination of Albany Slip Brown under Honey Flux, paired with the speckled character of MAYCO Winterwood, makes it a piece that celebrates both function and artistry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether you\u2019re a fellow potter seeking glaze inspiration or a collector of handmade pottery, this mug by Heather Paris is a wonderful example of how thoughtful glaze layering can turn a simple form into something truly special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
