Hark, sweet mason jar, highest form of container, I honor your utility and elegance with usage and extension.

This slip-on koozie for mason jars was an idea I came up with and prototyped while commissioned at Glowforge in Seattle to create products using their new at-home laser cutter. Materials used are wood + leather + waxed thread. The saddle stitching goes fully through the mutli-material handle, allowing a single piece of leather to span all the curves of this piece.
Simply said, this creation is a delight to use.
It feels wonderful in one’s hand, having organic materials make it up in entirety. The leather softly transmits the heat of the beverage. The handle makes no sacrifice in sturdiness, giving you the confident experience of a ceramic mug. Perhaps best of all though, breaking the glass doesn’t ruin your new favorite coffee mug.
