Description
This square ceramic coaster brings a cheerful bit of festive humour to the table, with a moustached train conductor and the words "Hot chocolate is my love language" printed across its light blue face. The conductor wears round glasses, a navy peaked cap marked "Conductor", a smart navy suit with a waistcoat and a gold watch chain, and he stands in a mint green circle framed by a black film-strip border. Red, green, white and gold stars are scattered around him, the gold ones with a glittery look. The lettering runs in bold black capitals along the bottom edge, so the message reads clearly from across the table. It measures 10cm square and 0.5cm thick, a size that sits neatly under an everyday mug.
We think it belongs beside the sofa on a winter evening, ready for the first hot chocolate of December, but it works just as well on a desk, a bedside table or a kitchen worktop, wherever a warm drink tends to land. The film-strip border gives it a cosy, cinema-night feel that suits a Christmas film night with blankets and a mug of cocoa. As a Christmas gift it is small enough to tuck into a stocking or add to a hamper alongside a bar of good chocolate or a tin of drinking chocolate.
The coaster is ceramic, with a flat square face and a design printed in full colour with crisp black lettering. To keep it looking its best, wipe it with a soft damp cloth and dry it straight away, avoiding scourers and harsh cleaners. At 0.5cm thick it slips easily into a drawer when the decorations come down, ready to come out again next winter. Set it out with a stack of mugs and a jar of marshmallows, and let the conductor do the talking.
