Description
This square slate coaster carries a cheerful toast to the nights that turn into stories: "Hangovers are forgotten, drunk stories make legends". The words are set in grey lettering on the black of the stone, framed by a banner across the top, a row of five small stars, curling scrollwork down each side and a flourish beneath, much like an old pub sign or a vintage bottle label. It measures 10cm across each side and 1cm thick, a comfortable size for a pint glass, a tumbler or a bottle of beer, and its edges are left rough and natural, giving it a rugged look on the table.
It belongs wherever drinks are poured and tall tales are told: on a home bar, beside the armchair, on a games room shelf or across the kitchen table when friends come round for the evening. The dark slate and grey lettering sit happily with wood, leather and dark metal, so it suits a den, a snug or a dining room with a traditional, pub-like feel. As a present it raises a smile with very little fuss, a lighthearted choice for anyone with a few legendary evenings behind them and plenty more ahead, and it makes a good small extra to wrap alongside a bottle of something good.
The coaster is a single flat square of slate, with the lettering on its face and nothing to assemble or fit, so it simply sits on any table or bar top ready for a glass. Looking after it is easy: wipe the face with a damp cloth after a spill, let it dry fully, and dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth to keep the grey lettering crisp against the black. We like it beside a favourite glass on the home bar, where the next round of stories can begin.
