This mug in the Michelangelo series resonates with a shower of gold descending over the green-blue undertones of body and spirit, reminiscent of the sun’s warmth and generative power. The halls of the master's life echo through this contemporary abstraction of his palette, highlighting the famed artist who wrote about his work in madrigals and sonnets saying, “My heart sees too much in the marble... the angel waits for my hand to set it free from an excess of stone” Then raising his chisel, the unseen came into being and the world stood in wonderment, gazing upon their own reflection.

Each mug is handmade with 18k gold detailing. They are individually crafted at the Maiuri studio as one-of-a-kind pieces, with variations in glaze, color, and artistic impression. The images provided are representative of and comparably similar to the wares available for purchase.
