Description
This pink earthenware mug carries two plain words, BE TRUE, in tall, slender black lettering across one side. Its body is wide at the foot and tapers gently towards the rim, which gives it a steady, grounded look on a desk or a kitchen worktop, and the soft blush pink of the outside sits against a white interior. A band of bare, sandy-toned clay runs around the base, a small detail that shows the earthenware it is made from. The handle is a wide loop with room for your fingers, and the mug stands 10cm tall and measures 11cm deep, a comfortable everyday size for tea or coffee.
The message is short enough to read at a glance and kind enough to keep close: a quiet reminder over the first cup of the morning, at the desk through a long afternoon, or beside the kettle in the kitchen. The pink is soft rather than bright, so it sits happily alongside white, grey or natural wood and brings a little warmth to an open shelf or a mug tree. Because the lettering runs on one side only, the plain back gives a clean, simple view when the mug faces the other way. It suits anyone who likes a calm, uncluttered look to their tableware, and it makes an easy, thoughtful gift with a few words that mean something.
The mug is made from earthenware, a type of ceramic, with the lettering in black on the pink outer surface. To keep it looking its best, we suggest washing it by hand in warm soapy water and drying it with a soft cloth, as is good practice for earthenware, and avoiding scouring pads that could wear the lettering. For a gift, wrap it in tissue with a bag of good tea or coffee and let the two words on the front do the talking.
