THE STORY
The dripper started as a failed teapot. The walls were too thin, the spout too narrow — but water moved through it in a way that made sense for coffee. We kept the shape and ditched everything else.
Each one is slip-cast from a plaster mold we made in 2021, then hand-finished to clean up the seam lines. The carafe underneath is thrown on the wheel — two processes, one set. The porcelain is thin enough to see your hand through it when you hold it to the light.
We tested it with 15 different grind sizes before settling on the cone angle. Medium-coarse, 3-minute pour, and you'll get why we kept going.
