This vintage ceramic mug is a sculptural work of mid-century artistry, designed and hand-decorated by Sascha Brastoff, one of California’s most iconic ceramicists. With expressive brushstrokes, rich glazes, and a signature sense of movement, this mug reflects Brastoff’s bold and theatrical approach to everyday objects.
Crafted in Los Angeles during the height of the American modernist movement, each Brastoff piece served both function and form—blurring the line between usable object and collectible art. This mug is no exception: weighty, well-balanced, and brimming with personality.
Signed “Sascha Brastoff” on the base, it’s a beautiful addition for collectors of mid-century pottery or anyone who appreciates the power of handmade design.
