What is “wabi sabi”, you might be wondering? Well, it’s a concept often embraced in Japanese art that is centered around the idea that there is beauty in imperfection. It is derived from the Buddhist teaching of the three marks of existence: impermanence, suffering, and selfless-ness. In the White Lotus studio, we always strive to embrace our wabi wabi - in whatever form it may come. We believe that it is the wonkiness, the weirdness, the uniqueness, the imperfection… that makes each piece and each person extremely special.
This mugs aims to serve as a reminder that to be human is to be imperfect, and to hold our imperfections and the imperfections of others with tenderness, acceptance, and love. It is because of (not in spite of) our uniquenesses that the world is a more beautiful place.
May this cup, with its finger dimples and asymmetry, fit perfectly in your hand!
