Meet the maker

We worked with our friends at East Fork to create the perfect vessel for your chai: a limited-edition East Fork x Diaspora Co. Kulhad in Panna Cotta. In keeping with custom, these handleless cups feature a subtle taper in the form line and widen to a full rim. OG kulhads are an alternative to plastic cups at roadside chai stalls. Our version honors that tradition and celebrates both the legacy and future of chai sipping! East Fork designs, manufactures and sells contemporary ceramic dinnerware made by hand with regional materials and a lot of integrity in Asheville, North Carolina. We’re so excited to partner with a like-minded brand, also committed to growing together, in community.
