So often, we wear masks in our relationships, shaping ourselves into what others want to see. We smooth out our edges, hide our truths, and perform small acts of pretense—all in the name of harmony. But beneath the surface, this forced perfection can fester, becoming a quiet poison that eats away at authenticity and connection. "THE-SHAPE-OF-TOXICITY" is a ceramic metaphor for these hidden dynamics—a reminder that the effort to please others at the expense of ourselves is, at its core, corrosive.

The handle, sculpted into twisting, toxic mushrooms, symbolizes the beautiful yet harmful aspects of these performances. The green glaze, layered with erratic patterns and shimmering metallic crystals, mirrors the façade we present—captivating at first glance, but concealing complexity. Its hand-thrown, deliberately distorted form embraces imperfection, challenging the polished exterior we so often strive for.

This pottery handcrafted cup is perfect for sipping tea or coffee, this cup is more than a functional object; it’s an invitation to reflect on the roles we play in our relationships. Made with non-toxic, food-safe glazes I’ve personally developed from natural metal oxides, it combines safety with symbolism. As you hold this cup, let it remind you of the weight of pretense and the freedom that comes from embracing your unvarnished self.

Diameter: 10 cm. Capacity: Approximately 200–300 ml of liquid.
