Description
This ribbed stoneware mug carries a grey F-35B Lightning fighter jet on its front, drawn from overhead with its wings spread, and the name LIGHTNING printed in pale grey capitals just beneath it. The body is a deep, glossy green with gentle ridges running around it, tapering slightly towards the rim, and it sits on a plain beige band at the base that gives it a warm, earthy look. It holds 11oz, a generous cup of tea or coffee, and measures 9cm tall, 12cm wide and 9.3cm deep, so it feels solid in the hand without crowding the cupboard. The back is plain green, leaving the jet to take centre stage.
It makes a good everyday mug for the kitchen, the desk or the shed, and it is just as at home on a tray with the morning paper. As a Father's Day gift it has real character: a mug he can reach for every day, with an aircraft on the side that rewards a second look. The green and beige pairing suits a farmhouse kitchen or a home office, and the sturdy, slightly tapered shape stands steady on a worktop or a desk between refills.
The mug is made from stoneware, with a glossy green finish over the ridged body and handle and a plain beige band at the foot. The loop handle leaves room for two fingers, so it is comfortable to hold when full. As general good practice for a stoneware mug with a printed design, we suggest washing it by hand in warm soapy water and drying it with a soft cloth, which helps keep the jet and its lettering looking crisp. For a gift, tuck a few tea bags or a sachet of hot chocolate inside and it is ready to wrap.
