The Birds 1967 Mug transforms Larson’s expressive patterns into everyday works of art. Each mug captures the essence of her original sculptures, echoing the spirit of the late 1960s - an era of freedom, hope, and fearless creativity.

The story begins in Sausalito, California, where a young Lisa Larson spent six formative months in 1967. Studying under renowned ceramicist Peter Voulkos at UC Berkeley, she found herself swept up in the energy of the Flower Power movement and the expressive beauty of Mexican folk art. In this creatively charged atmosphere, Larson began painting birds — playful and spontaneous, with no thought of production, just pure inspiration.
