Description
Our cream stoneware cup holds 290ml, a generous measure for tea or coffee and close to what many of us pour into a mug. It stands 7.5cm tall and measures 9.5cm across, a low, wide shape that sits comfortably in the hand. A cockerel in a collar of flowers sits beside the handle, while floral sprigs and leafy stems are scattered across the front. The large rounded handle carries the bird's tail feathers, so the decoration continues right onto the part you hold.
It is a cheerful cup for the breakfast table, the mid-morning pot of tea or a hot chocolate on a cold afternoon, and the size suits a milky coffee without the bulk of a full mug. Between drinks it earns a place on an open shelf or kitchen dresser, where the cockerel and his feathers can be enjoyed. It makes a thoughtful present for anyone who loves a farmhouse kitchen, keeps hens in the garden or simply likes a cup with a bit of character, and it sits happily alongside plain tableware as well as patterned pieces.
The cup is made entirely of stoneware, a dense, sturdy ceramic that holds heat well. The maker confirms it can go in the dishwasher, the microwave and the oven, so it can be rinsed and loaded with everything else after breakfast, and a drink that has gone cool can be warmed again without pouring it into another cup. At 0.3KG it has a reassuring weight without feeling heavy. The inside is a plain contrasting shade, which gives a neat frame to the drink. For a pretty breakfast table, set it on a plain saucer or a small wooden board, where the cockerel and the feathers on his handle stand out against the simpler pieces around him.
