Description
This blue stoneware mug wears the sign of Aquarius, with a shiny gold handle that catches the light every time you lift it. On the front, a fine white line drawing of the water bearer's jar pours a curl of water. It is ringed with tiny stars and dots, with AQUARIUS printed beneath in clean capitals. Turn it round and a constellation is picked out in white dots and lines, above three words for the sign: UNIQUE, INNOVATIVE, INDEPENDENT. It stands 10cm tall, 11.5cm wide and 8.5cm deep, a comfortable everyday size for tea or coffee.
It brings a calm, soft blue to the kitchen shelf or the desk, and looks just as at home on a bedside table with a morning cup of tea. The glossy glaze and white interior keep the look fresh, while the gold handle adds a touch of warmth. Because the design is printed on both sides, it reads well whichever way it faces on an open shelf. It makes a thoughtful present on its own or tucked into a hamper of favourite treats, and the printed sign makes it easy to choose for the right person.
The mug is stoneware, a type of ceramic, finished in a smooth glaze with a bright metallic gold handle. To keep the handle at its best, we suggest washing it by hand in warm soapy water and drying it with a soft cloth rather than scrubbing the gold. For a pleasing pairing, set it beside a plant or a stack of books in similar soft blues. You could also wrap it with a favourite loose-leaf tea for a ready-made gift that needs nothing more than a card.
