SOLD OUT - Check back Saturday, April 5 when we unveil our newest Mug Club design.
Introducing our March 2025 Mug Club offering, the second piece in our celebrated Craftsman Mug Collection series. This wheel-thrown mug showcases a hand-sculpted California poppy motif in low relief, bringing a touch of springtime warmth with its vibrant orange bloom against the serene blue-green glaze.
This thoughtfully crafted piece continues the journey of our six-piece collection releasing in alternate months throughout 2025. While maintaining the refined form that unifies the series, each mug features unique traditional motifs inspired by craftsman design principles. When displayed alongside January's Ginkgo design, this poppy edition begins to reveal the harmonious visual story unfolding throughout the collection.
Remember to mark your calendar for the first Saturday of May, July, September, and November to complete your collection with future installments in this limited-edition series, while exploring our diverse range of other designs in between.
Mug Club offerings are limited editions of no more than 200 pieces. Order while supply lasts.
Handmade to order. No two pieces of the same design look exactly alike, that’s part of the magic of handmade ceramics. Because we lean away from technologies like molds, templates, and casts, each piece is wholly unique. Minor variations in size, decoration, color and finish are intrinsic to our pottery. Please expect and embrace the variation inherent in our process.

Ephraim Elemental is Ephraim Pottery’s line of functional pottery tableware. It is intended to be beautiful in both form and function. Stoneware clay is used to handmake these pieces which are fired to a higher temperature than our Ephraim Art Pottery. They are then finished with our food-safe, watertight glazes.
Ephraim Elemental Tableware’s modern, elegant forms serve as the canvas for rich, colorful glazes. These glazes have a matte, stony texture. The material elements fire, clay, and mineral oxides, inherent in the ceramic process, inspire our pieces. We present pieces elemental to life’s daily rituals. Moreover, they evoke joy through vibrant and solid design.
Our functional pottery collection includes a variety of drinkware. Included are a mug for coffee or tea, a smaller mug for espresso or children’s drinkware, and a tumbler for juice or smoothies. In addition, there are three sizes of bowls and a flower vase. The bowls are perfect as serving dishes, as well as everyday tableware.
We are confident eating or drinking from a handmade Ephraim Elemental functional pottery piece will make your grain bowl, soup, morning oatmeal, coffee, and tea taste better.
