At home, we have a wide assortment of handmade mugs. We use them daily, defiant of the increased risk of breaking our beloved one of a kind functional art pieces. There is something about waking up to a lovely drink (like, say, coffee) when you are drinking it out of a mug that loves you right back that makes you feel like the world is actually a pretty good place, and that it will be OK to leave the comfort of the breakfast nook and be a part of it.
Introducing Lollipop Pottery, the creation of Tyler and Jessica, who got married and had babies and made mugs and bowls, and who make us happy every morning when we wrap our hands around their creations (the mugs that is… we haven’t actually met their babies). They hand throw each piece, apply Jessica’s hand drawn decals, and hand embellish with lead-free glazes. That’s a lot of hands!
You’ve got to get up pretty early to get the matching bowl:
Food/microwave/dishwasher safe. $27 – $32.

SALE!!! We had a really great time buying new things for Click! at the New York International Gift Fair…perhaps we went overboard actually. We need some room!
Beginning Wednesday August 27th, everything in the store is at least 15% off. Topping that, all handbags and jewelry are at least 20% off.
We’d recommend you shop early, but if you can’t make it in during the week, you should still come out to find a special something. We’ll be serving snacks and libations on the weekend until the Sale’s end on Sunday August 31 at 5pm.

We went to a gift fair in Northern California mostly to show our line of cork jewelry to the wine industry. Who knew that we would find the brilliant Joanna Mendicino, who’s handmade ceramics she describes as “crafty modern”? Her simple, clean forms appeal perfectly to our sensibilities.
Check out “sea kelp”:
and “shorebirds”:
We should be receiving her work shortly! UPDATE: It’s here!! And even more lovely in person.

Beautiful, modern, and locally handcrafted in Seattle’s South Park neighborhood, the latest from urbancase leaves us nearly speechless. Yes, those doors are a cast resin rose petal motif, and OMG that white oak stained dark with a custom veneer makes us covet this piece like no other. Love.
