If There Is A Geologist,

in your circle of family and friends,


 one of these mugs must be an ideal present for him/her,

 they are the work of Collin Lynch, working under the name Essarai Ceramics

 Lynch specialises in oversized coffee mugs, each one a riot of colour and texture,

Lynch works from his home studio in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where he allows each crystal formation to take shape as it is constructed, in addition to alluring surface aesthetics, Lynch also finds inspiration in his efforts to “unveil perfection through imperfection, which is where Truth lies. Nature, being the most delicate yet enduring example of this paradox, is where through the rough surfaces and shattered angles, we are reunited with ourselves.”

 these mugs and other ceramic home goods are inspired by and named for specific stones like Smokey Quartz and Amethyst, pieces are available for purchase on Lynch’s Etsy shop,

 and you can follow his works in progress on Instagram, and I have to say it, no I am not on commission, I just thought what a great gift they would make for a rock hound!
