Description
These are three stoneware mugs, each holding 450ml and painted by hand in green over a solid glaze. Every mug in the set carries its own pattern: one has slender stems topped with round heads, one has long upright leaf shapes divided by fine lines, and one is scattered with spots. They measure 11cm across and 8.5cm tall, so they sit wider than they stand, a low and generous shape finished with a looped green handle. At 450ml this is a properly large mug, roomy enough for a big tea, a milky coffee or a hot chocolate with space left at the top.
They suit the kitchen table and the breakfast tray, the desk where the morning coffee waits, and the sofa on a slow weekend afternoon. Because the patterns differ, each person in a household of three can have a mug of their own, which settles any question of whose is whose. A set of three also makes an easy housewarming present for someone furnishing a first kitchen. The generous capacity earns its keep on cold days, too, as a mug of soup at lunch.
Stoneware is a dense, hard-wearing ceramic, and these mugs are made entirely of it, with the decoration painted by hand on a solid glaze. A band of bare stoneware is left at the foot, a small detail that lets the clay itself show. Everyday care is simple: the maker states they can go in the dishwasher and the microwave, so reheating a drink and clearing up afterwards need no extra thought, and they can go in the oven as well. For styling, hang them from hooks along a shelf or stack them beside the kettle; the three patterns look best side by side, where the green of each picks up the others.
