A kulhad is a traditional Indian clay cup, cherished for serving chai in a way that feels earthy, comforting, and connected to everyday ritual. In this collection, I reimagine the spirit of the kulhad through the lens of handcrafted Indian teaware—honoring its roots while bringing it into a modern, functional.
These glazed urban kulhads echo the familiar shape and warmth of their traditional counterparts, yet offer a refined, durable interpretation meant to integrate seamlessly into your daily tea practice.
Each cup is designed to elevate the quiet moments of brewing and sipping, grounding you with the tactile presence of handmade clay.
Thoughtfully thrown and glazed by hand, these kulhads carry subtle variations that make every piece unique. Their smooth interiors and comfortable rounded forms make them ideal for chai, herbal infusions, or any warm beverage that invites pause and presence.
Bringing them into your home adds a sense of story and connection—linking today’s mindful rituals with India’s long-standing tea traditions.
