Family Floral Wreath Mug with Inside Words 400ml - Cream

This cream mug with words inside and out puts a little family message into every cup of tea. On the outside, a fine grey line drawing of a floral wreath, all leafy sprigs, small open flowers and trailing stems, frames the words "FAMILY where life begins and LOVE never ends". Look inside and there is more: a short verse runs around the inner wall, beginning "I have the loveliest family who always support me through the good times and the bad", so there is a kind word waiting with every sip. It holds a generous 400ml and stands 9.8cm tall, 13cm wide and 8.7cm deep.

With its 400ml capacity, it is a proper everyday mug for the morning tea at the kitchen table, a mid-afternoon coffee at your desk or a slow hot chocolate on the sofa in the evening. The soft cream and gentle grey sit happily alongside most kitchen colours, from natural wood and white cupboards to sage, stone and grey, so it never looks out of place on an open shelf or a mug tree. Because the words speak to family and love, it makes a heartfelt gift whenever you want to tell someone how much they mean, and the hidden verse gives them a second little surprise when they first look in.

The mug has a straight, smooth body in a soft cream finish, a stepped foot and a curved handle with two small scrolled spurs, a pretty detail that also gives your fingers a comfortable hold. The grey print is crisp and fine, so the drawing reads clearly from across the table. To keep it looking its best, we suggest washing it gently by hand in warm soapy water and drying it with a soft cloth. Wrap it with a favourite tea or a bag of coffee and you have a thoughtful present that will be used every day.
