These very cheap & disposable earthen cups are heavily used by small roadside tea stalls throughout Indian subcontinent.

Discarded tea cups in the garbage bin of a tea-stall. The red clay cups were what Bengal was famous for. They are made locally in the city's potters' colonies (which was a big cottage industry in Bengal), and they are recyclable. A man comes around with a hand wagon distributing and later collecting these tea cups from the tea stalls to take back, crush and reshape into fresh cups. However, interspersed with the clay cups here are the new cups being used of clear plastic. India's moving from the recyclable to the "waste and fill landfills" economy!
Chai in Bengal is usually served in these little clay cups, which I personally believe adds a different, yet pleasing flavor to the drink. Besides, it's bio-degradable.

During this time of COVID lockdown, more and more people wander the neighbourhood for exercise. Some people in my community have planted interesting handmade objects for people to find on their walks; painted rocks, fairy doors, pendants, and violas planted in clay cups.
Peace To All,
WOW!! I found these vintage pottery, shakers today at a thrift store. The plate is clay and in nice condition. The mushroom shakers are ceraimc, flower power era, and the purple saucer and cup are both clay pottery. Can't make out their signatures, but I am inverstigating it. In the meantime, they're clean and are already displayed. Only paid $1.75 for ALL!! Very nice findings today. Thanks for having a look. Please feel free to take a look at our other pics of our home. Where is your masterpiece? Can I have a look?
Blessings To All
