Description

Crafted from salvaged earth and raw clay, this matcha cup is a quiet rebellion against the ordinary. Each vessel is hand-shaped in a meditative process that echoes the deliberate rhythm of a traditional tea ceremony. More than a drinking vessel, it’s an invitation to slow down. A modern homage to centuries-old rituals, this cup bridges earth and intention, tradition and reinvention. No two are alike—because no ritual, no moment, ever truly repeats.

The Asa cup is wheel-thrown using a blend of reclaimed clay and locally sourced salvaged earth from around Madrid, selected for its natural texture and thermal resilience. The exterior is adorned with a unique green tea ash finish, created by calcining spent matcha leaves into a fine ash and incorporating it into a high-fired glaze. The cup is fired at 1250°C (cone 6–8), ensuring vitrification for daily durability. Its walls are slightly thicker to retain heat and provide a grounded, comforting weight in the hand. The form is intentionally unornamented, emphasizing balance, hand-feel, and the quiet irregularities of handcraft. A series of 8, each is unique, but creates a complete unison together.

Dishwasher-safe, though hand-washing is recommended to preserve glaze longevity. Each cup is one-of-a-kind, made in small batches and suited for everyday rituals.

About Volupte Studio Visit Showroom →

Welcome to Volupte Studio! Where connecting to the material is a fundamental to how we work. We are a sustainable design company based in Madrid, Spain, specializing in the design and production of made to order luxury interior design and home products, including furniture, lighting, tableware, as well as finishes. Our mission is to create elegant, environmentally conscious solutions that enhance our indoor spaces while minimizing our ecological footprint. Our work is based on the fusion of materiality and functional design inspired by our Mediterranean upbringing, merging craft, nature and beauty. We aim for our pieces to create their own identity inspired through a raw materiality that brings sensuality. Focusing on the process, we want our pieces to reflect a sensory voyage, always alive and in motion. We offer bespoke services from unique pieces, series to installations. Our clients range from individuals for their personal homes, to restaurants, hotels, and fashion brands. Our work is always based on a unique blend of material/ process and the client’s need. We work with natural materials, sourcing biomaterials from a mixture of urban and rural environments depending on the project. We are inspired by ecosystems of the periphery, or the places unseen, questioning the hierarchy of value that we are accustomed to. We want to create value through story and process, giving voice to material. By doing so, it gives us the opportunity to create sustainability, through organic shapes and forms that reach sensuality and pleasure. We live and work in Madrid, but seek project focus in the countryside of our childhood homes in southern France, and Bulgaria.
