New Cups and Bowls, Oh My!

Hooray!

Groups of two of our Favorite Things have just arrived, so recently that the individual pieces aren't up in the online shop yet (but they will be soon, no worries!).

First:

We were down to the last few of our Ted Jolda party cups when lo and behold, a nice big order came in.  The colors available in the Gallery are as shown: pink, blue, lime green, green, purple, yellow, brown and red.  And he sent us a bonus:  the cutest little Mini party cups you can imagine!  They're just like their larger relatives, but in shot-glass size, more or less.  (A sip of dry sherry, anyone?  How terribly civilized!)  We have them in lavender, brown, lime green, green, turquoise, pink and red.

Quantities available in the Gallery in each color are limited, but we can special order them for you.  Please contact us to order multiples.  Remember, this is a very sought-after artist, so be sure to order early if you're thinking about holiday entertaining.  (Allow at least a month for delivery.)  The regular-sized cups are $20.00 each; the Minis are $15.00 each.

And Second:

Yes, the very popular Eggshell Bowls from Robin Hominiuk!  We have a nice group of new ones, including one in a large size that we haven't seen before.  They are wood-fired porcelain and stoneware, all absolutely one-of-a-kind.

The small bowls are $125.00 each; the large one is $225.00.

Again, we'll have individual listings up in the online shop as soon as possible
