{"product_id":"lotus-pedestal-tea-cup-bps9zxmn","title":"Lotus Glass Tea Cup — Pedestal Form, Scalloped Rim","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlown from clear glass into a form derived from the opened lotus, this tea cup carries its botanical reference lightly. The pedestal lifts the ribbed bowl off the table surface, creating a slight levitation that reads as sculptural before it reads as functional. Scalloped edges at the rim trace the petal sequence without replicating it literally — an act of translation rather than illustration. Nine colorways move from near-neutral (Clear Water Green, Chalcedony Green) to saturated specimen (Jelly Orange, Peacock Blue), each cast as a continuous field of tinted glass rather than applied glaze or surface treatment. The color lives inside the material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eInspirations\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe lotus holds a persistent place in the formal vocabulary of objects made to receive liquid — not for decorative tradition alone, but because its geometry solves a structural problem beautifully: broad at the opening, gathered at the base, stable on its own footprint. Here that logic is abstracted into glass, the ribbing of the bowl suggesting organic growth arrested at a precise moment of opening. The pedestal base recalls both flower stem and laboratory stand — an ambiguity the form does not resolve, and does not need to.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTinted glass throughout — color is integral to the material, not a surface coating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePedestal base with ribbed bowl and scalloped petal rim\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNine colorways: Grape Purple, Clear Water Green, Lilac Purple, Jelly Orange, Bellflower Purple, Peacock Blue, Rose Pink, Sky Blue, Chalcedony Green\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProportioned for tea, tisane, or still water — equally legible as a small vase or specimen vessel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTranslucency shifts with liquid fill and ambient light, making each pour a minor optical event\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch5\u003eNotices\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlass; handle with standard care — avoid sudden thermal shock from boiling liquid poured directly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand wash recommended to preserve clarity and rim integrity over time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinor variation in tint depth and surface character is inherent to the glass-forming process and not a defect\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhotography renders colorways under studio and natural light conditions; perceived hue will shift with your ambient light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TRLAB SHOP","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":54555120206099,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0870\/0028\/5459\/files\/sku_lotus-pedestal-tea-cup-bps9zxmn_01_a137ed7f-4e8f-4a0c-84ec-13ff99e3c68a.webp?v=1786342904","url":"https:\/\/trlab.com\/fr-ca\/products\/lotus-pedestal-tea-cup-bps9zxmn","provider":"TRLab Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
