The Ferm Living Ryu Mug Low – Sand / Brown takes its name from the Japanese word for flow, referring to the intricate, marbled patterns that run through the clay. Made using the traditional Nerikomi technique, in which two differently coloured clays are kneaded, rolled and cut by hand, each mug carries a pattern entirely its own.
Crafted from layered stoneware finished with a clear glaze, the mug measures 8 x 11 x 6cm and holds 20cl, built to enhance the morning coffee or tea ritual. It is not dishwasher safe and should be hand washed, and as a handcrafted piece, patterns can vary significantly from one mug to the next.
Pair it with the Ryu Mug Tall from the Ferm Living collection for a set of two heights.

Ryu: Nerikomi stoneware with patterns kneaded into clay
DesignerFerm Living design studio
Ryu is Japanese for flow, a name taken from the patterns that run through each piece. They are made with Nerikomi, a traditional technique where two differently coloured clays are kneaded, rolled and cut by hand, so the sand and brown pattern is part of the clay itself.

Pattern in the clay
The design goes all the way through, not on the surface.
Each one unique
Hand cutting makes every pattern different.
Craft you can use
Mugs, a bowl and a platter for daily meals.
Made to hang too
Bowls and platters can be shown on a wall.

The Nerikomi technique
In Nerikomi, a sand and a brown clay are kneaded together, rolled out and cut by hand. The layered clays form flowing lines, and every pattern is one of a kind and can vary significantly.

Under a clear glaze
Ryu is layered stoneware finished with a clear glaze, which keeps the pattern sharp and the surface smooth to use. Because each piece is handmade, small variations are part of the result.

Mugs, bowl and platter
The low mug holds 20 cl and the tall mug 30 cl. The 15.5 cm bowl and 18.5 cm platter suit snacks, sweets or a single serving, and can also be hung on a wall; wall hooks are not included.
