Description
This little baby mug is a christening keepsake for a godchild, finished in a polished pewter colour that catches the light. The words GOD CHILD run across the front in clear capitals, surrounded by a cheerful parade of nursery animals: a sitting teddy bear, a spotted giraffe, a rabbit with a bow, a striped zebra, along with a smiling star and a small heart. It is a round mug with a tankard-style body that widens towards a stepped foot, and a generous loop handle on one side. It stands 7.5cm tall, 9cm wide and 7.5cm deep, and holds 142ml.
We see it as a gift from a godparent on the day of a christening, something to stand on a nursery shelf or windowsill and be kept for years to come. It suits a little one from birth up to three years old, and the friendly animals give it a gentle, playful feel that sits happily in a child's room without being fussy. Being small, it fits on a display shelf, a dresser top or in a keepsake cabinet beside a christening photograph, and it will look just as good there when the child is grown and the mug has become a reminder of the day.
The mug is made from iron and steel with a bright, polished finish, and it arrives gift boxed, ready to hand over on the day. To keep it looking its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth, wipe it with a slightly damp cloth when it needs more, and dry it straight away. It is a keepsake rather than an everyday cup, so we would give it a place out of reach of little hands at first, then a spot on the child's own shelf as they grow. For a christening, we like it given with a card from the godparents: a gift that will mean something years later.
