A SPARE

After breaking the mug that I had used for a rather long time it occurred to me that it never hurts to have a spare. This tessha and ash glazed mug is the official mug-in-waiting to replace the current terra cotta mug that I am using. Thrown out of stoneware and fired elsewhere, this was the spare to a group of four mugs that I had made a while back. I found it sitting in the back corner of a shelf, hidden from view by a group of large plates that were stacked up and there it was forgotten. I will say I am in no hurry to break my current mug in use but should the unthinkable happen, I'll have a spare waiting somewhere on my shelves most likely collecting dust.
