Born in Dehradun, I moved to the beautiful Nilgiris this year. This collection is created in reverence of this magical land. The Nilgiris are known for it's diversity in both flora and fauna. The fungi are one of the most important organisms to this land. 

Lichens are bizarre organisms and no two are alike. Lichens are a complex life form that is a symbiotic partnership of two separate organisms, a fungus and an alga. The dominant partner is the fungus, which gives the lichen the majority of its characteristics, from its thallus shape to its fruiting bodies.

These mugs are functional collectibles for someone looking for something unique and one of a kind piece. 

Ayra's comfort mug is known for its skillful, form centric, handcrafted expertise. The form is thoughtfully designed with a base that gradually curves inside to the foot with a lip designed to fit your lips perfectly.

The feel of the mug is sturdy yet light as I spend a lot of time working on it's balance that makes for a perfectly crafted mug ideal for the coffee and tea lovers.
