A pair of cups that's made to be together. Wheel-thrown porcelain, painted by hand.
Each cup features a framed figure in blue: one male, one female. The figures are inspired by two 1890s monotypes by Maurice Prendergast, 'Lady in Red' and 'Children in Red Capes'.
On the other side of each cup are lines from an Ezra Pound poem, 'The River-Merchant’s Wife: A Letter': I desired my dust to be mingled with yours Forever and forever, and forever
Death cannot, will not part them.
The cups are sold as a pair. Each cup is approximately 8.5 cm tall and 8.5 cm across (12 cm including the handle). Trimmed flat foot and signed underneath.
