Science like Magic but Real Ceramic Mug
Science like Magic but Real Ceramic Mug
"Science. It's like magic but REAL." It's hard to believe that we have to remind people of that, but... The handle with a lovely thumb rest reads "Science doesn't care what you believe!" Using the sgraffito method, carved and decorated around the mug are lots of science icons.
This oversized wheel-thrown mug is black and white on the outside, and a cool galaxy-inspired blue-green-brown combination (one of my favorites). There is a light bulb painted on the bottom of this piece of pottery.

Sgraffito is a technique where potters can put a layer of glaze or slip on a piece of pottery, let it dry, then use a pottery carving tool to scratch at it to show the base layer of color. Sgraffito derives from an Italian word meaning “to scratch”.
