Functional Designer Products
A tall, handless stoneware cup. Handcrafted in our studio, with a subtle “sprout” handle that naturally rests on your fingers.
Sprout: Where a handle began to grow, then froze in time.
Sprout Chill is a taller, more slender evolution of the original Sprout cup. Designed for cold drinks and cocktails, but equally comfortable in hand for something warm.
The form tapers inward towards the top, creating a natural grip, while the sprout-like handle supports the cup on your fingers as you hold it.
Each piece is made from stoneware clay and finished by hand in our studio. The cup is coated with engobe, while a transparent glaze is applied to the inside and partially on the outside — exactly where the lips meet the surface. This creates a contrast between matte and gloss, while enhancing the depth of the colour.
Fairouz is a light, playful blue that brings a softer presence to the form.
Each cup carries small variations in tone and texture, a natural result of the making process.

Greek inspired handmade ceramic Carafe.
A new addition to our handcrafted ceramics collection, this carafe is designed by KAFAOUIN and handmade in our studio. It’s formed from stoneware and finished with lead-free glazes, making it safe for everyday use as well as display.
Part of the Araque series, its shape draws from Ancient Greek pottery—clean, curved, and close to the hand. It’s made to be used: the cork closes it securely, and it holds liquids securely. Originally designed for serving traditional Greek raki with its matching shot cups, it also works just as well for Japanese sake, olive oil or other drinks.
This piece is finished in our Solar Bloom glaze, where deep wine-red tones break and fade into transparency. Each firing brings slight variations in how the glaze settles, making every carafe a little different.
Fired at high temperatures for full vitrification, it’s made to last—solid, functional, and meant to be used.
Also available in:
Stone — Earthy Beige
Anthrazit — Elegant matt architect black
Rustic Aqua — Greens, blues and brown effects
Afterdark — Majestic glossy black

A fine vessel for fine drinking experience.
The DuskDwell Whiskey Cup is designed and handcrafted by us at GRAYN Design Studio. It’s made to be used, but also to be noticed.
The shape curves in and then gently opens up again at the top, giving it a light, almost floating feel on the table. The rim is thin and carefully finished to bring out the true character of what you’re drinking and a fine drinking experience, whether it’s whiskey or any other fine drink.
The “Urban Patina” glaze is a mix of warm grey-browns with subtle blue speckles, with a soft satin surface that feels smooth in the hand without being glossy.
Each piece is made from stoneware and fired at high temperature for strength and durability. We use lead-free glazes, so it’s completely food-safe.
This isn’t part of a wider collection—it stands on its own. A quiet, distinctive piece, whether you’re buying it as a gift or keeping it for yourself.

Dunes: As in desert dunes!
Dunes is a wooden clock designed and made in our studio from ethically sourced walnut. The surface is carved into soft, organic waves, giving the face a quiet sense of movement that shifts with the light.
There are no numbers — just a clean dial with bright yellow hands that stand out against the depth of the wood. The contrast keeps it easy to read while adding a subtle point of focus.
Finished with a natural oil to bring out the walnut’s tone and grain, the surface keeps its raw character while gaining a soft sheen.
It can be hung on the wall or paired with a stand for tabletop use. At 27 cm in diameter, it sits comfortably in both settings, with a slight nod to mid-century design.
Handcrafted variations in tone and texture make every piece unique.
Designed by KAFAOUIN and handcrafted in our studio.
