Okay, It's just a cup, but I have returned to this simple design many times over the years to make small refinements to the volume, shape and proportions, as well as to my process. Making dozens of these cups over the years has been a study in paying close attention to the efficiency of my actions and material use; always seeking to get just a little faster without compromising on the basic premise of a functional hand-formed metal cup. I make them in two styles: a shiny, planished finish and a pebbly matte finish. For an in-depth look at how these cups are made click here.
