Hand-Painted Gold-Rim Espresso Cup Set – 4 Artisan Ceramic Cups

Savor Moroccan Majesty in a Single Sip

Crafted in the pottery souks of Safi and refined in Marrakech’s gilding ateliers, these luxurious espresso cups transform your daily shot into a five-star ritual. Each 6 × 6 cm vessel is hand-thrown from creamy white clay, fired twice for chip resistance, and then hand-painted in rich indigo, emerald, onyx, and desert-amber glazes. A final sweep of 24-karat gold encircles the rim—fired on at low temperature so it bonds permanently—adding a warm glint that echoes lantern light in the Medina streets.

Master artisans spend hours perfecting the geometric zellige-inspired pattern, ensuring that no two espresso cups are identical. Buying this set supports fair-trade wages and apprentice training, an initiative highlighted in Morocco: The Home of Authentic Handicrafts.

Key Features

• Pure Gold Accent—A genuine 24-k band elevates the cups, pairing beautifully with brass pieces from our Moroccan Brass Lamp Collection.

• Four jewel tones—deep blue, forest green, warm amber, and classic black—let you assign signature colors to guests.

• Perfect Espresso Capacity—Holds ~2 oz (60 ml) with room for crema; the thick walls keep shots hot longer.

• Gift-Ready Packaging—Arrives nested in a satin-lined box; see wrapping tips in Mindful Handmade Gift-Giving Guide.

• Dishwasher Safe (Top Rack) – Gold is kiln-fused; however, hand-wash will preserve the gleam for decades.
