About Us

Picture

​We are a small family business, fronted by Heather and Tim (mother and son, friends and business partners).

In our Melbourne shop, The Cup&Mug, we sell  a very extensive range of famous Boleslawiec Polish Pottery and a smaller range of gentle, charming Nicholas Mosse Pottery from Kilkenny Ireland.  Both are totally handmade using traditional methods, including very distinctive sponge decorating techniques. 

We love beautiful, practical things that bring joy in everyday life.  We value quality, artistry and skill, and delight in functionality which possesses a human story. Substance is as important to us as appearance and feeding the soul as important as feeding the body.

We’d love you to visit our store. If visiting in person is not practical or possible, email or phone us and we’ll do our very best to assist you. We now have much of our current selection of
Polish Pottery and
 Nicholas Mosse Pottery available for purchase online here.
