This compact cortado cup brings a quiet strength to the table with its clean lines and deep, moody glaze. Named Aokumo — Japanese for blue cloud — the surface evokes shifting skies: deep navy, stormy grey, and specks of pale ash swirling together like mist over mountains.

Hand-thrown by Signe Schmidt, the piece is part of her Japandi-inspired ceramic collection — balancing Scandinavian minimalism with the wabi-sabi beauty of natural imperfection. Its smaller size is ideal for a strong cortado, a double espresso, or even a sip of sake.

Every cup is a one-of-a-kind meditation in form, glaze, and feel.

About the Artist

Meet Signe Schmidt, a dedicated potter and teacher based in Copenhagen. Her work is deeply rooted in the Japandi style — a harmonious blend of Japanese and Scandinavian design traditions. This fusion allows her to create ceramics that embody both cultures’ reverence for simplicity, elegance, and quiet functionality.

Signe is best known for her hand-thrown Matcha bowls, tea cups, and cortado cups, each one a unique composition of form and glaze. Her pieces often feature soft, earthy tones and layered finishes, reflecting nature’s subtle textures. Every glaze is thoughtfully named — often drawing from Japanese — to evoke the feeling and story behind the surface.

Working from her own studio, Signe throws every piece by hand, infusing it with intentionality and presence. She embraces the imperfect beauty of stoneware, allowing the natural clay body to remain part of the visual language.

In addition to her studio practice, Signe teaches throwing techniques at YONOBI and AOF, where she helps students discover the meditative rhythm of working with clay.

Signe’s ceramics are more than functional objects — they are expressions of craftsmanship, calm, and poetic restraint, designed to bring a sense of balance to your everyday rituals.
