Axel & Bois' cup molds for pottery and ceramics are very practical tools. You've probably heard of the straight form, and now there's the flared form!
Developed in partnership with ceramists, potters (and pottresses!), they are an effective response to a simple need: to make cups from clay slabs, in series and without a potter's wheel.
Made from high-quality wood, this mold is perfect for creating unique, personalized mugs. Its durability and smooth finish ensure easy use and professional results.
With these pottery cup molds, you'll never have to rummage through your belongings to find a sturdy tubular object of the right diameter!
They're ideal for beginners who want to learn pottery or ceramics the easy way, and for professionals who want to make cups or mugs with the same look! These tools are also very useful for professionals wishing to teach all types of public, even the youngest.
The flared cup molds are currently available in 4 different diameters, measure 12cm (4 3/4“) in height and are sold with a handle measuring 12cm (4 3/4”). Total tool height is approximately 22cm (8 5/8").
Here are the different diameters of cup molds offered:
- 65 mm
- 75 mm
- 85 mm
- 95 mm
Note: As each product is handcrafted, slight variations in color and dimensions can be expected, as wood is a living material!

You can clean them with clear water or natural soap, then rinse and dry. As far as possible, avoid leaving wooden tools in water. If you wish, apply a light coat of natural oil (hemp, linseed, etc.) annually, and leave to dry for 24 hours before use. Beware: oil-soaked fabrics can spontaneously catch fire if left unattended.
