The Beaker "Monkey Cup" from South Netherlandish
in the 1400's has such intricate details! WOW!! I love the silver and black.
Fit for a king!! It looks like it could have been used as the goblet in the
Bible. From lip to foot, this goblet was fully thought out.
Chug!! Dionysus, the God of Wine would have loved the
Skyphos deep drinking cup. I love Greek illustrative work that tells a story
and the handles. The warm colors are offset nicely by the black background. The
foot is very defined.
Bethany Benson should receive an award for literally the
coolest set of pitchers and cups ever created by mankind. These are amazing!!!
LOVE the subdued values of the colorful hues with the black glazed exterior.
Texturally speaking, she created interest by glazing the interior with a high
gloss and the exterior with a more matte finish. The shape of the spout on the
pitcher is cool and the handles add a beautiful flowyness as well.
Doug Peltzman's Juice Cups from 2011 are super cool. The
patterns and textures he added are exquisite. The overall piece is reminiscent
of mushrooms to me for some reason and I like the numerous rims on the exterior
of the cups.
