Fiesta is the sturdy workhorse of tableware and has been around since 1936. We were thrilled to see their new glaze, the reddish-coral “Flamingo” hue released this spring. Disc’s petite, anthropomorphic form is shown here in the smallest, five-ounce size.
Despite the fact that these fine bone china cups feel light and fragile, they survived some not-exactly-delicate handling. The “Macaroon” moniker comes from the glaze, which is saturated in the center and thinner toward the edges, just like its namesake.
These glass pitchers and cups consist of recycled glass stock that's processed in a wind energy-powered furnace. Each is made by hand, one at a time, in Esque's Oregon studio so no two are alike.
Last weekend, the little boy who lives next door set up a lemonade stand on the street, right outside our apartment. It was predictably adorable, and we gladly paid our 50 cents for a small cup of the tart-and-sweet stuff, which was predictably delicious. The pitcher he was using, however, was not so awesome: fussy spout with a difficult flip-top, unwieldy handle, awkward proportions. We would have loved to trade his less-than-stellar pourer with this sleek model designed by Hanna Werning for Sagaform, sure to eliminate some of the drips and spills.
