Description
These are stoneware cups sold as a set of four, each holding 250ml and measuring 8cm across and 8cm tall. The body is round and full, narrowing slightly towards the rim, with a looped handle on one side. A blue wash sweeps around the lower part of every cup and carries on into the handle, and no two of the four share quite the same pattern, so the set looks like a family rather than four copies. Stoneware is a dense, hard-wearing ceramic, which suits pieces handled every day.
At 250ml, each cup takes a proper serving of tea or coffee without the bulk of a large mug, and the rounded body sits comfortably in two hands on a cold morning. Four is a good number for a couple or a small household, or for setting out when friends visit. They suit the breakfast table, an open kitchen shelf where the pattern stays on view between uses, or a tray carried through to the sitting room. Because each cup differs, everyone at the table can keep track of their own.
The cups are made from 100% stoneware, and care is straightforward: they go in the dishwasher, they can be used in the microwave and they can go in the oven. The maker also lists them as approved for food, so they are ready for everyday tea and coffee. Stoneware holds heat well, a useful quality in a cup meant for hot drinks. For styling, the blue pattern sits nicely against plain linen and pale wood, and the four look their best grouped together on an open shelf with the handles all turned the same way.
