Geometric Zulu

by Nguyen, Falseah · A Block Ceramics

One of a kind

mug

R 200,00

My design is inspired by the Zulu people of South Africa and their traditional geometric patterns. I carefully hand-built this mug using the slab method and used sgraffito to create the black triangles and lines. It is meant to represent the strength and history of the Zulu tribe while being a functional piece for your home. By purchasing this, you are celebrating cultural traditions and supporting our local community. It’s more than a mug; it’s a tribute to a beautiful culture.
