This handmade ceramic yunomi tumbler is created by Ukrainian ceramic artist Andrii Tyrsa. Each cup is hand-built from clay without the use of molds or a pottery wheel, resulting in a form that feels natural, grounded, and individually shaped. The piece belongs to the WHISPER body of work, focused on quiet form, surface, and tactile experience.
Surface & technique
The exterior surface is formed using an original author’s texturing technique that emphasizes depth, movement, and irregularity. The textured brown surface recalls natural erosion and aged wood, expressing a wabi-sabi approach where imperfection and asymmetry are essential qualities rather than decorative effects.
Use
With a 230 ml capacity and a handleless tumbler form, this yunomi is well suited for tea, matcha, coffee, or other warm beverages. Its textured surface sits comfortably in the hand and encourages slow, attentive use. As a one-of-a-kind handmade object, it also makes a thoughtful gift for those who value functional ceramics and calm, intentional design.
Materials & making
The cup is made from high-fired stoneware and finished with a glazed interior for comfortable daily use. The exterior remains matte and textured, preserving the raw character of the surface. All materials and glazes used are food-safe. Each piece is formed, textured, and glazed individually by hand.
One of a kind
Each yunomi tumbler from the WHISPER body of work is a single, unrepeatable piece. Variations in texture, surface, and form are an essential part of the handmade process. The exact cup shown in the photographs is the one you will receive.
