The surface reveals a dynamic interplay of warm copper-reds blending into mossy greens, with soft transitions where the glazes overlap. Along the vertical form, the Green Tea glaze breaks into drips and streaks, creating a painterly effect that highlights the handmade character.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The mug\u2019s silhouette is simple but bold: slightly flared at the rim, tapering downward to a narrower base. The handle is organically attached, its join emphasized by glaze pooling and flow. Up close, you can see the fine textures where the glaze movement enhances the tactile, earthy quality of the form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, the piece combines <strong>earthy warmth with subtle depth<\/strong>, balancing functionality with artistry\u2014making it not just a drinking vessel, but a canvas for glaze expression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/img_0576-1-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Copper Float Green Tea mug by Erwin Lares\" class=\"wp-image-2488\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/img_0576-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/img_0576-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/img_0576-1-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/img_0576-1-1140x1520.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/img_0576-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Clay body: Laguna Bmix<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.maycocolors.com\/product\/sw-129-copper-float\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MAYCO Copper Float<\/a> x2<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.maycocolors.com\/product\/sw-108-green-tea\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MAYCO Green Tea<\/a> x2<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/lasrubieras\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Erwin Lares<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" data-id=\"2487\" src=\"https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/img_0575-1-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Copper Float Green Tea mug by Erwin Lares\" class=\"wp-image-2487\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/img_0575-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/img_0575-1.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Handbuilt by Erwin Lares, this Laguna Bmix mug is glazed with layered MAYCO Copper Float and Green Tea, creating flowing transitions of copper-red and mossy green with expressive drips and depth<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2487,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"iawp_total_views":44,"footnotes":""},"categories":[29,17],"tags":[1086,423,1085,75],"class_list":["post-2489","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-combos","category-mugs","tag-erwin-lares","tag-green-tea","tag-green-tea-over-copper-float","tag-mayco"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2489","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2489"}],"version-history":[{"count":14,"href":"https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2489\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10452,"href":"https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2489\/revisions\/10452"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/2487"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2489"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2489"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marijadesign.lv\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2489"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
