Named after the brightest star in the northern sky. Small, luminous, and impossible to overlook — Vega cups make every small pour feel like it matters.
The brightest things are not always the biggest ones. Vega is the brightest star in the constellation Lyra and one of the most conspicuous stars in the entire northern hemisphere — a brilliant point of light that has guided navigators, inspired astronomers, and been the reference point for stellar measurement for centuries. It is also, at just 40ml, the smallest cup in the Astraea range. The name was chosen deliberately. These are double wall borosilicate cups — small, beautiful, and made for a very specific kind of drinking. Not the rushed cup. Not the full morning brew. These are for the in-between moments: the small pour at the end of a long meeting, the tasting cup that lets you try before you commit, the quiet after-dinner serve that says the evening is not quite over yet. In longer meetings, Vega cups are the perfect companion — serve small quantities of 30–40ml of your favourite Astraea tea and let the conversation continue. Because tea served in a beautiful vessel slows a meeting down in the best possible way. People sip. People talk. People notice the cup. Due to the double wall construction, hot liquid is easy to hold without burning your hands — and the transparent borosilicate lets the colour of the tea shine through, which at 40ml means even a small pour of Rose Hibiscus or Berry Tea looks like something worth stopping for. Small enough to collect. Beautiful enough to display. Named after a star. Part of the Astraea Tea Crockery Collection.
