Marbleized Pattern

These beautiful mugs inspired me to revisit marbleized designs.  I love how a marbled pattern can evoke so many different moods.  They can be historic and scholarly, or aquatic and nautical, or subtle and geographic. I hope you enjoy these sophisticated patterns as much as I do.
