mariza bray ceramics

If the only thing adorning your bedside table is a cluster of bobby pins and a thin layer of dust, might we interest you in this pretty darn clever contraption, the moringa. It's nothing new around Brazil, where they've sat at the bedside for yonks to keep water cool and handy during the night, but Queensland lady Mariza Bray has been crafting some of her own, and they're making us want in.

The two-piece device is made up of a jug and a cup, both handmade by Mari from clay, then fired and adorned with her own designs. It sure beats reaching for that musty plastic bottle that's been hiding under the valance for who knows how long.

If Mari's moringas have caught your eye, you can find more of her work over at her Etsy store.
