The Black Ball mug translates a piece of beach iconography—the black ball flag—into the language of ceramics.
Handcrafted in small batches, each piece is high-fired and features a bold black dot—a nod to the iconic body surfing flag that once marked restricted surf zones in Southern California.
With its warm and matte yellow glaze, speckled texture, and unique hand-thrown shape, this cup is perfect for coffee, tea, or display. It blends form and function with a playful cultural reference and is a favorite among body surfers, artists, and ceramic collectors.
• Size: Approx. 3" tall x 3" wide (8 cm x 8 cm)
• Finish: Honey luster glaze inside.
• Material: High-fire stoneware
• Care: Dishwasher safe, but handwashing is recommended
• Note: Each mug is one-of-a-kind; slight variations in glaze and design are part of its character.
