Cups & Flowers Mosaic Art
Debra Rich builds these mosaics around real cups and mugs, cut in half and set into broken china. Some hold bouquets of porcelain and brooch flowers. Others hold plants and greenery, or sit among floral china shards. Each piece is handmade in Sarasota.
🎨 Made to Order · Ships in 3–4 Weeks. The original has sold, but I will handcraft one just for you! Each piece is created individually, so your finished work will be similar in spirit and style but beautifully unique — no two are exactly alike.
