Description
This stoneware mug carries a vintage football poster design, with the words Cup Final Wembley Saturday April 24th lettered in black beneath the scene. A goalkeeper in a blue jersey stretches both arms wide across the goal mouth while players in white shirts and black shorts scramble for the ball, all set against a soft pink sky and a deep blue pitch. The artwork runs around the cream body of the mug, which is glazed cream inside and finished with a rounded handle. It stands 8.5cm tall, 8.9cm wide and 13cm long, and holds approximately 350ml.
It is a mug for the kitchen cupboard, the office desk or the open shelf where favourite mugs are kept, and the bold artwork brings a slice of football history to the morning brew. The flat colours and clean lines of the illustration have the charm of an old printed poster, so it sits happily beside plain white crockery or among a mix of patterned pieces. A 350ml measure suits a full cup of tea, a milky coffee or a hot chocolate without reaching for the kettle again straight away, and the rounded handle gives a comfortable grip for a slow sip at the table.
The mug is made from stoneware, a sturdy ceramic with a reassuring weight of 0.382KG, and it is dishwasher safe, so it can go in with the rest of the washing up after a busy day. Between washes, a rinse and a wipe with a soft cloth is all it needs. We like it as part of a mismatched row of mugs on a kitchen shelf, or wrapped on its own as a thoughtful present for anyone who enjoys a vintage design with a story behind it.
