Designed by slowform

Designed by slowform and made in Arita, Japan, this porcelain cup reinterprets the stepped form of mid-century stackable café glassware. Its unglazed exterior provides a smooth, tactile grip, while the glazed interior resists staining from coffee. The mineral-rich Touseki clay is blended with iron and sand, giving each cup a subtly varied surface

Construction / Engineered with a precise, stepped profile that allows multiple cups to stack seamlessly, optimising space while echoing functional industrial design. The exterior is left entirely unglazed, fired to a smooth, tactile matte finish, while the interior features a contrasting high-gloss protective glaze that meets cleanly at the rim.

Material / Slip-cast in Arita, Japan, using a custom-blended clay derived entirely from natural Touseki (porcelain stone). The raw formulation is enriched with controlled additions of iron and sand, introducing subtle, unpredictable mineral speckles that guarantee no two vessels are identical.

Fit & Function / Sized at a versatile 230ml capacity: perfectly proportioned for flat whites, filter coffee, americano or standard cappuccinos. The stepped geometric ledge acts as a natural, ergonomic resting point for the fingers, providing a secure grip and insulating the hand from heat. The non-porous interior glaze is strictly engineered to resist coffee oils and prevent staining over time.

Arita Porcelain

The town of Arita, located in the Saga Prefecture of Japan, is globally revered as the birthplace of Japanese porcelain, with an archival heritage spanning over 400 years. Since the discovery of high-quality porcelain stone in the region during the early 17th century, Arita’s historic kilns have mastered the delicate balance between structural density and fine-grain texture. Slowform collaborates directly with a traditional workshop in Arita to combine this centuries-old material mastery with contemporary, functional silhouette, ensuring each piece carries the weight of history into modern daily rituals.
