Description
This glazed stoneware mug brings a cheerful slogan to the tea break, with a vintage poster print wrapped around its sides. One side shows a red and cream notice under a crown, reading "Drink tea for victory" with "Those biscuits won't dunk themselves" beneath it. Turn the mug round and a gentleman in a yellow jacket and red trousers kicks up his heels with a mug in hand, beside the words "Today, more than ever". The print sits on a deep teal-green ground, while the handle, rim and inside are plain white. It stands 12cm tall, 13cm wide and 9cm deep, and holds 426ml, or 15oz, which makes for a generous brew.
It is a mug for the person who measures the day in cups of tea, and it suits the kitchen at home just as well as the desk at work, where a 426ml brew means fewer trips to the kettle. The humour is gentle and very British, so it raises a smile at the morning cuppa without trying too hard. We think it makes a thoughtful Father's Day gift for dads who take their tea seriously and their biscuits even more so, and it goes nicely alongside a packet of his favourite biscuits for dunking.
The mug is made from stoneware with a glazed finish, which gives it a smooth, glossy surface that wipes clean easily. The large loop handle leaves room for a few fingers, so it is comfortable to hold when full. To keep the print looking its best, we suggest washing it by hand with warm soapy water and a soft sponge, then drying it with a tea towel. Wrap it up with a box of tea bags and some biscuits, and the gift is ready for the big day.
