Mara was an accomplished painter, sculptor and ceramicist who studied engraving with the famous artist, Alfredo Zalce. After studying art in London, she began working with high-temperature ceramics and created wonderfully unique glazes for her pieces. She then went on to study with the Italian ceramist, Bruno Terese, in Italy. Mara had numerous expositions of her original stoneware pieces in Europe, the United States and Mexico.

The Mug is in very good condition,  and displays nicely. Mara passed away in 2007 , so I'm not sure when this mug was made , and her Family still runs her pottery business.

The mug is 4.5" tall x 4.5" wide to the handle x 3" diameter with a square bottom.
