Morning Glory | MCS-0025 is a one-of-a-kind handmade ceramic footed cup from the Nine-Colored Deer Collection by M&C Studio.
Inspired by sacred deer imagery, floral motifs, and moon symbolism in Dunhuang mural art, this piece features a white deer leaping beneath a golden full moon, surrounded by morning glory blossoms and layered green leaves. The raised footed base gives the cup a more ceremonial silhouette, while the soft pink, gold, and mineral-brown tones create a quiet sense of grace, blessing, and renewal.
Origin: Jingdezhen, China
Height: 2.8 in
Rim diameter: 3.4 in
Weight: 5.9 oz
Capacity: 7.8 fl oz
Each Myth & Clay piece is shaped by hand painting, mineral-rich surface texture, and firing at around 2336°F (1280°C). These layers of process give the cup its depth, movement, and quiet variation in tone and finish.
Made in Jingdezhen and finished in small batches, each piece carries subtle differences that make it distinct. No two pieces are exactly the same.
With regular use, the surface may gradually appear deeper and more luminous over time.
Avoid abrasive scrubbers, harsh detergents, and sudden temperature changes. Rinse gently and wipe dry after use.
For pieces with gold or silver detailing, do not use the microwave or dishwasher. For pieces without metallic detailing, those uses may be possible, though hand washing is recommended for long-term care.
