Bring a touch of tradition to your coffee ritual with our Mini Espresso Cups, handmade by skilled artisans in Capula, Michoacán, Mexico. Each cup is crafted and decorated using the centuries-old Capulineado technique, where delicate floral-inspired designs are created dot by dot, then kiln-fired to achieve a brilliant, glossy finish. Unique and exclusive, no two cups are ever exactly alike—making each one a true work of art. Perfectly sized for your espresso, these cups are dishwasher safe for easy care (not microwave safe). Add authenticity, charm, and artistry to every sip.
These rare espresso cups are more than just drinkware—they’re pieces of living tradition. Made in Capula, Michoacán, a town celebrated for its pottery, they are shaped from one of the finest natural clays in Mexico. The local soil is prized for its unique natural color, eliminating the need for added dyes or colorants, and has been used for centuries by artisans. Each cup is paired with a matching plate, both finished in the signature Capulineado dotted floral design and glossy shine. Perfectly sized at 1.5 fl. oz. (ideal for double espressos with rich foam), the cups measure 2" in diameter by 1.5" tall, while the plates measure 4" in diameter—a rare artisan set that blends function with history.
