Together forever or at least until the handle breaks

Farhana and Sajid are getting married on Thanksgiving!
While thinking for a wedding present for the awesome Sajid Sadi I decided to revisit my experiments in double cups and persuasive objects. Nowadays, I know how to throw ceramic things on a wheel at the MIT clay studio, so I thought I would make a new kind of double cup with more flexibility than the rigid handled one.
The unglazed wet cups
It was thrown from white clay with hand-built handles. I glazed the insides with rosey dawn, the outsides with volcanic green and double dipped the tops in verdigris. With my congratulations and best wishes to Sajid and Farhana!
