Handcrafted Roman Decorative Cup – Nene Valley Style Step into the Elegance of a Roman Banquet These beautifully crafted Roman replica cups are inspired by the elegant Nene Valley pottery style. Carefully hand-decorated using white slip, they would have added a touch of sophistication and refinement to any Roman feast. Materials & Dimensions Material: Earthenware clay Height: Approx. 85 mm Diameter: Approx. 100 mm Production Each cup is handmade in Northumberland by Potted History, using techniques inspired by original Roman artefacts. Fired at 800°C–1000°C to replicate authentic Roman firing conditions. The surface colour and texture may vary, reflecting the natural variations seen in historic pottery. When ordering, you may not receive the exact cup photographed—each piece is one-of-a-kind due to the hand-decorating process. Health & Safety This is a Museum Quality Replica, made using the tools and techniques of the Roman era. Not food safe: As an unglazed, porous vessel, this cup does not meet modern health and safety standards for food use. For decorative and educational purposes only—it is ideal for historical displays, experimental archaeology, and collectors of Roman artefacts. The porous surface absorbs liquids and flavours, as did the original Roman vessels. Ordering & Shipping 'Add to Basket' Items: Ready to ship immediately.
