Ynys Llanddwyn Mug — Minimalist Style

This piece is part of a series of minimalist designs focused on iconic Welsh locations. Ynys Llanddwyn sits off the west coast of Anglesey, joined to the mainland at low tide by a narrow stretch of sand. The island is closely connected with Santes Dwynwen, the Welsh patron saint of lovers. Legend tells that she retreated here after a broken heart and was granted three wishes, including that true lovers would be blessed. Her well was once visited by couples looking for signs about their future. The design uses bold, clear shapes and clean lines to suggest the outline of the island and its lighthouse without extra detail. A bright, pared-back take on one of Wales’s most familiar coastal spots.
