Use as a cup, a scoop, a bowl, a place to mix mud or even drink a hot cuppa. Yes Mumma, this can just be your next favourite coffee mug. This ethically handcrafted cup has been designed with open ended play in mind. It sits on a sturdy perch with finger holes for easy carrying. The leaf handle feels beautifully tactile but can also serve as a holding place for botanicals and crystals, as your mini mud kitchen chef whips up the next great mud pie, to call in the fairies with a little potion play.
Designed in Australia. Ethically and lovingly hand-carved, hand-sanded & hand-polished by Vietnamese artisans in a traditional craft village.
This one can be hung up by the hand holes when not in play.
Due to the nature of this product no two are the same. There are variations in the wood grains and craftman/womanship, giving each item its own personality.
Dimensions: 16cm x 7.5cm x 6cm
Made from Doussie, a Vietnamese plantation timber. Finished with food-grade oil.
Our wooden items have been handcrafted and are waxed with food-grade wax.
To keep your wood looking its best:
- Do not leave submerged in water for a really long time (like a week) - play is okay but hang it up to dry after.
- Dry with a tea towel after getting wet
- Keep it beautiful with a rub of beeswax into the wood, to avoid the fibres lifting.
- Only use mild dishwashing detergent if needed
- Never put wood in the dishwasher
We work with a small Vietnamese enterprise that promotes Vietnamese handicrafts ensuring stability in the industry, work from home opportunities for young mothers and protection for traditional skills and crafts.
