Description
This pink stoneware mug carries a playful cartoon portrait of a glamorous woman with dark hair swept into a high bun and topped with a small gold tiara. She wears a black sleeveless dress, long black gloves, pearl earrings and a pearl necklace, and holds a long cigarette holder, all set in a deeper pink circle. Around her, a looping string of coloured lights, gold glitter stars, white stars and a sparkling gold ring motif fill the pale pink background, while a bold line of black capitals beginning "Breakfast at" runs round the lower edge. The handle and the inside are a bright red. It holds 11oz and stands 9.8cm tall, 12cm wide and 8.5cm deep, a handy everyday size for a full cup of tea or coffee.
We think it suits the first brew of the morning, a slow weekend breakfast or a tea break at your desk, where the red handle and pink print add a little colour to the day. It is a cheerful pick for anyone with a soft spot for old-school glamour and witty prints. It also makes an easy, light-hearted gift, simple to wrap and sure to raise a smile when it comes out of the paper.
The mug is made from stoneware, a type of ceramic, with a gloss finish that gives the print a bright, clean look. The red handle and inside set off the pink outside for a smart two-tone effect. As good general practice for a printed ceramic mug, we suggest washing it by hand in warm soapy water and drying it with a soft cloth to keep the colours looking their best. Hang it on a mug tree or line it up with other bright mugs on an open shelf, and it brings a pop of pink to the kitchen even between cups.
