Description
This ceramic mug carries a cheerful sheep illustration and the words "i love ewe", a gentle play on a phrase everyone knows. The sheep is a round bundle of white wool with a soft grey face, wide eyes and a small smile, its legs kicked out as if it is skipping across a field. The lettering sits beside it in a neat, handwritten black script, printed in lower case. Outside, the mug is a soft creamy white; inside, it is a pale pink that shows each time you look into your drink. It holds 300ml and stands 9cm tall and 9cm deep, with a rounded body that narrows a little towards the base.
We think it belongs wherever the kettle goes on: on the kitchen shelf, beside the bed for an early cup, or on a desk where a smiling sheep can lift a long afternoon. At 300ml it takes a proper cup of tea with a splash of milk, a mid-morning coffee or a hot chocolate on a cold evening. The open loop handle leaves room for your fingers, so it sits comfortably in the hand when full. The pun makes it an easy mug to give, a small way of saying something warm without having to say it out loud.
The mug is ceramic with a smooth glazed finish inside and out, and the sheep and lettering sit on the outer wall, clear of the rim. For everyday care we suggest washing it by hand in warm soapy water and drying it with a soft cloth, which keeps the glaze bright and the design looking its best. For a cheerful present, tuck a few tea bags or a bar of chocolate inside and wrap it in tissue.
