To mark our 20th anniversary, we present to you an exclusive series of elegant cups handcrafted by Carmen Abdallah. It is truly an honor to offer you special edition designs by a ceramist with whom we've been collaborating since the inception of Cha Noir. We asked Carmen to number each of her small creations. Hence, like pieces of art, each handcrafted cup has a number from 1to 50.
The artist developed a new glaze specifically for this series of 50 exclusive cups. She used among other things, ash from the woods of the Laurentides (the region where she has been working for years) and feldspath. When fired at a high temperature, the glaze vitrifies to create unique hues and textures on the surface. She worked with a light clay from Ontario which was fired in an electric kiln, a judicious choice that allowed her to present pieces featuring shades of orange, ochre, and blue, on a pale background, for a result that stands apart from the rest of her work.
It's worth noting that Carmen Abdallah lost her studio in a fire in March 2023. This was a challenging period for her. She lost her equipment, pieces, clay, kilns, and all the fruits of her labor from recent years. Her studio has been temporarily relocated, and she now produces only limited special editions in small quantities.
Please note that ceramists' pieces are unique since they are handcrafted. It's precisely this uniqueness that we seek when buying from a ceramist. Every piece is different. The shades, shapes, dimensions and textures may vary slightly from one piece to another, even if they were created as part of a series. The photo and cup dimensions provided are indicative. Due to screen differences, colors, shades, and saturation might vary slightly.
Cups are available while supplies last. Exceptionally, a shipping fee of $10 (+ taxes), which covers a portion of the shipping costs, will be automatically added to any order containing this exclusive product even if the order totals $65 or more. You can choose in-store pickup; in this case you can collect your package in-store, and these fees will not be charged.
Safe for food consumption. Non-toxic and free from heavy metals.

The Tea cups in this collection are hand-sculpted and then baked in the electric oven for the first time. Then, on each one of them, a unique drawing is engraved by Marie with the help of a small sculpting tool. After this, the glaze is applied, and the cup is finally baked a second and last time.
The intensity of the work required for such an achievement is especially felt once a completed piece is held in hand sporting a warm blend of chai or an infusion of a high-altitude oolong. The cup's walls are thin, the glaze is of quality, and the clarity of the piece's hue enables the complete enjoyment of the tea's colorful infusion.
Each piece, shaped by hand, is unique and original.
The patterns may vary slightly from the photos.
Price is for a cup.

This chawan made by internationally acclaimed ceramist Kent Benson was fired in a wood kiln in Stanstead over 30 years ago. The artist worked for about thirty years, between the 60s to the 90s. Since he no longer produces today, this bowl is extremely rare. It is a privilege to be able to offer it here.
