This vessel is based on a find from Birka, a Viking Age trading town in 10th century Sweden. It was likely of West Slav origin, probably traded from Eastern Germany or Poland. While the original was unglazed, low-fired coarse ceramic ware, ours is made of dark stoneware, fired to 2200 Fahrenheit and glazed inside for use in modern daily life.

From Birka grave number 825.

Holds around 12 fl oz
About 4 in tall
Around 3 in diameter at the rim

Our glazes

We finish the interiors of our vessels with a variety of food and microwave-safe glazes. Each item is handmade and kiln fired, which leads to some beautiful variations between batches. The examples below will give you a good idea of what your piece will look like.

Jade

A stunning blue-green variegated glaze. It features a high-shine lacquer finish.

Midnight

Blue black like the night sky, with flecks of lighter gray. This glaze reminds us of stargazing on hot July nights.

Juniper

Forest green with flecks of blue and amber, we named this glaze after our favorite conifer – and gin aromatic.
