Shoreline Mark — Black | Lake Michigan Ceramic Mug

Shoreline Mark — Black | Lake Michigan Ceramic Mug

This handmade porcelain mug is part of my Shoreline Light Series, inspired by the changing colors, textures, and small details I notice along Lake Michigan.

A quiet black glaze fills the interior and wraps around the upper portion of the mug, contrasting with the softer, textured surface below. Lake Michigan sand is incorporated into the glaze, connecting the piece directly to the shoreline that inspires my work.

The slightly taller, narrower form gives this mug a different feel in the hand from others in the series. A hand-rolled coil finishes the rim, and a few small seagull tracks are painted on the bottom—a detail waiting to be discovered when the mug is lifted.

Each mug is individually made by Cyndi Casemier in Grand Haven, Michigan.
