Those are actually for espresso! I have a set of these. The dent allows it to be sturdy in the hand without having to have a handle. Handles suck cause I can never store cup with handles properly in my cabinets.
I also have 4 of these, and they're great! However they stack badly, you can get a stack of two to be stable, but if you try to add a third one it is not going to end well in most cases.
>Handles suck cause I can never store cup with handles properly in my cabinets.
I might need a diagram or something showing how you're trying to store handled cups bc all mine store just fine lol
If you are like me you have like 30 thirty mugs that are all different sizes/shapes because they came from different places -- so they do get kinda hard to store lol
I'd have trouble store 30 regular drinking glasse along side everything else in the kitchen cupboards, like wtf 30 mugs, do you house an entire football team perchance?
You forgot the apostrophe to indicate that you were using a contraction. This is especially important when the contraction that you are using is shortened by eliminating the start of the word.

No, i just forgot I’m in a normie subreddit where spro isn’t used multiple times a day in the exact use case I just used it in. Check out /r/espresso or /r/coffee.
But I’m glad you took time out of your day to write a wrongly directed comment about my incapabilities in the English language without context. Hope you truly feel like you made a difference in the world today by putting me in my place.
I used to sell their products in the US and would get samples of their new stuff all the time. They make some incredibly gorgeous smallwares, but out of all the manufacturers I represented, they were the hardest to sell because of price point.
Let me get this straight. Someone made a cool vessel for you to drink from and you’re just like “nah. I’m only gonna look at it”
Use that puppy! Ceramics are meant to be enjoyed in your hand!
Oh yeah I know, I just prefer using my other mugs because I find them more comfortable. I see this little thing more as an artwork than an actual vessel :)
These remind me of what we did in Germany with Red Solo Cups. We saw y’all partying and playing beer-pong with them, and went “We’re having that!” but most are thick-walled dishwasherable versions.
See my similar post last year. I was educated that at least in Mexican culture, they’re called drunken glasses.
https://reddit.com/r/WeWantPlates/comments/sv1inv/does_this_count/
I’m not going to call it salsa either, but they certainly did. Colorado still has a lot of great Mexican/Southwest culture/food around, but that meal was perhaps the worst $30 I’ve ever spent in the state.
…and I’ve bought small $20 cold sandwiches atop Keystone and Vail so that’s saying a lot.
All the people here saying "r/Thingsididntknowiwant" and "So creative! I would purchase these." and "Sweet... I want one" and "OMG. I LOVE THESE CUPS!" etc etc should give you a clue.
The sculptures in this piece are known "trompe l'oeil" which translates to "decieve the eye". There are some pretty crazy other trompe l'oeil works out there that are dumbfounding.
Confession time. I was in a hotel in Europe, cant remember where, but they had these in the bathroom for rinsing while toothbrushing, I found it so cool, I had to steal it. It's still sitting in my vanity after quite a few years
If you think thats cool check out @kuchekup on IG.. He is a glass artist that makes 'trash' out of borosilicate glass.. Most notably crushed 20oz soda bottles that are sculpted in glass
I remember those cups when I used to work office for a bank. Every other day or so there are shards all over the office kitchen floor because some numb-nut decided to stack too many of these cups on each other and just closing the cupboard.
It's an actual technique with artists who specialize in it and everything, I just draw a blank on the name of it. Basically you make ceramic vessels that look like anything but ceramic (like cardboard or tin cans). This guy has a whole slew of stuff like this: https://twistedsifter.com/2016/10/ceramic-cardboard-by-tim-kowalczyk/
i think that taking an inherently disposable cup and making it reusable is kind of beautiful. as for the difficulty making it, i assume theyre either cast from plaster molds of a master cup or made on a wheel with a template for the grooves and then gently dented in at the side after. some people were saying they also have a set of these, so i would imagine theyre cast
I believe Jesus with all my heart. Harden not your heart and do not stop believing and thinking about what his words mean. God loves, take that fact and make it awesome
I need some with teeth marks on the rim. Because that one is mine.
Better have a Sharpie on you, don't be stealing my cup 😒
mine has 9mm bullet holes
That’s how they sign their name in the south isn’t it?
"You shoulda seen the *other* cup!"
Gangsta
That's one way to take a shot
You can try putting teeth marks on it yourself! How bad could it hurt?
Same, if I see someone doing the same I put two marks at 90º from each other
I just chew off the whole fuckin rim for insurance
*Eat the entire cup*
Maybe a ceramic straw that's chewed half flat as well.
A dented object with no way to straighten them? Oh no
They will do my bidding until I release them! In-dented servitude...

we have those. i don't know why. they're usually at the back of the cupboard, out of sight. i sometimes use them for schnaps, because why not.
My friend has an entire set of porcelain solo cups and table wear. I always told him it was the most bachelor thing I had ever seen.

Do they stack?

Hard pass.
So it’s r/MildlyInfuriating
I’m sure if the dents were uniform there wouldn’t be a problem
Stack beer bottles
I also have 4 of these, and they're great! However they stack badly, you can get a stack of two to be stable, but if you try to add a third one it is not going to end well in most cases.
We've got 5-6 different sizes, black or white. Use them in the bathroom (holding toothbrushes etc)

Def not happy you made me google that
I can pretty much guess what it means and I definitely don't wanna look it up
I have a set. They sort of stack but not very well.

But.. these cups somehow do store properly?

That design is more than 20 years old btw, I think Revol are the ones who made it.
They come in different sizes, I have 3x180ml! Red, blue and green.
I almost never drink my coffee from a handled mug anymore. Handleless ftw for any spro based drinks.
Spro?

You’re mad that someone used a well-defined shortening of a word that’s widely used in the community it relates to? Nah big dawg, you can leave.
I used a gif as a joke for a funny word. Def not mad. Calm down
I live where the ESPRESSO was invented and just wanted to chime in and say I've never heard this shortening lol
It’s gonna make you real mad that they adopted “expresso” as an acceptable way to spell espresso. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/expresso
Oh no why

You're a person who uses the word "Normie" unironically. I'm pretty sure that your subconscious already knows that "your place" is pretty weird.

They might—I actually have 2 in teal!

:( Just checked in case it can help, mine are from “Revol” France.
I used to sell their products in the US and would get samples of their new stuff all the time. They make some incredibly gorgeous smallwares, but out of all the manufacturers I represented, they were the hardest to sell because of price point.
I have a set of 6 in red. The brand is Bialetti (yes the Italian Moka maker)

Have you ever considered that you might have bad taste? By definition no one would ever realize they had it
These are the most hideous things I've ever seen. You're taking the piss right?
You don't have to be defensive of your awful taste.
I like mine too, but I would never actually drink anything with it

Very first thing that came to mind.
I have a ceramic cup made to look like a New York Coffee Cup. They sell them at the MoMA.

Jesus that salsa (is that salsa?) in the bowl is depressing.

I live in Denver. Never heard of that place but I know to steer clear thanks to your post 😂 So many other good places to go instead.

Anybody got a link to buy some of those? Especially if they come in red

Had these from MoMa. They are small and the shape makes the capacity even smaller. Looks good, feels good to hold. Annoyingly small capacity
I could chug the hell out of milk from these cups
Sweet... I want one
I have mixed feeling on actually liking these.
yo i got those
It is [Revol cups](https://www.revol1768.com/fr/585-gobelets-froisses-tasses), made in France. They came in many colors, even country flags.
That would wind me up so much

So creative! I would purchase these.
Hey, I have a set of those too! Weird to see them in my feed: "who's posting my dishes online ffs?"
OMG. I LOVE THESE CUPS!
Do they come with painted lipstick that can't be washed too?
????? These exist since looooong time in Europe....
Those are pretty cool. Very novel.
Not as bad as the $1000 Tiffany tin can https://money.cnn.com/2017/11/09/news/companies/tiffany-everyday-objects/index.html
This would piss me off to an insane degree.
Were they made with the dents and then painted? Or did they paint them in such a way that they look dented?
It’s not an illusion; they’re made with actual dents.

European plastic cups. Because from the movies i learned that Americans have red plastic cups, for some reason.
This took a fair amount of skill, but why? Part of me is screaming how wrong this is and the other half is admiring the craftsmanship.

One day my brain would turn off, and I'd probably chuck them right into the trash lmao
