recently i had the absolute pleasure of designing a commissioned order for the upcoming opening of Fenix Coffee in Bristol. Tiffany and Charlie are the sweetest barista couple! when they mentioned wanting organic earth tones, my mind immediately went to those rounded, gentle, and tactile river smoothed pebbles.
for the little espresso cups, i kept the interior smooth with a glossy white glaze so you can appreciate the rich hues of the coffee. the exterior features a sandy, velvety matte glaze, with extra thick wall designed so you can hold it with both hands and feel the comforting warmth.
the dessert plates are finished in a rich dark brown glaze, preserving the natural, organic flow of the glazing process to make sweet treats pop.
the matcha bowl is crafted from speckled clay and dipped in a newly developed breaking red glaze. it features a thoughtfully spout, ensuring not a single precious drop of matcha is wasted!
thank you so so much, Tiffany and Charlie, for trusting me with your vision. wishing Fenix Coffee all the love as it becomes everyones new favourite spot in Bristol!
