Description
This camouflage Vulcan aircraft mug is made from stoneware and glazed in a deep, glossy green. The delta-winged jet is printed top-down in a swirl of grey, white and dark brown camouflage, with a red, white and blue roundel on each wing. Beneath it, the word VULCAN runs in tall grey capitals, so there is no mistaking the aircraft. The body is softly ribbed, with gentle rings that catch the light. The base is left as a band of natural, unglazed stoneware for a rustic, studio pottery look. It holds 11oz, a proper everyday measure for tea or coffee, and stands 9cm tall, 12cm wide and 9.3cm deep.
It earns its place by the kettle, on the office desk or beside a favourite armchair. A morning brew or an afternoon cup becomes a small nod to the aircraft every time you reach for it. The rounded loop handle leaves room for a comfortable grip, and the slightly tapered, ribbed body sits steadily on a table or windowsill. The green glaze and camouflage print suit a study, a garden room or a kitchen with a heritage feel, and look just as good lined up with your other everyday mugs. We think it makes a thoughtful Father's Day gift, wrapped on its own or paired with a bag of good coffee.
The stoneware body carries a glossy glaze over the green and the ribbing, while the unglazed foot band shows the natural colour of the clay. The aircraft and lettering sit on the front of the mug. To keep the print bright, we suggest washing it by hand in warm soapy water and drying it with a soft cloth rather than scrubbing the design. For a cheerful finish, hang it on a mug tree with the aircraft facing out, or fill it with sweets and a card for an easy Father's Day surprise.
