Silly Frilly Saucers

The Dervish Coffee Cup by Kunter Sekercioglu is Inspired by the Sufi Saints

Inspired by India's Sufi Saints -- or more specifically, their robes -- the Dervish Coffee Cup flows like fabric. Utterly unique, it represents their twirling motions as they move to their culturally enchanting music.

Designed by Kunter Sekercioglu for ZULAStars, the Dervish Coffee Cup is made out of porcelain. Although it looks like one fluid form, it actually breaks apart to become a separate cup and saucer. The design itself promotes convenience and safety when drinking hot liquid.
