Description
This small stoneware cup holds 110ml and carries a scatter of hand-painted croissants across its blue body. It is 6cm across and 7cm tall and softly rounded. It has a chunky loop handle and a plain band round the base where the blue stops. At 110ml it is a cup rather than a mug: the right measure for a child's milk or juice, and just as right for an adult's espresso. It weighs 0.15KG, so it is light to lift and easy to carry from the kitchen.
We class it as kids' tableware, and it earns its place at the breakfast table: a cup of milk with cereal, a little juice at teatime, warm milk before bed. Its small size means a child gets a manageable drink rather than a brimming mug. Grown-ups will find plenty of use for it too, as an espresso or cortado cup after lunch, or a small hot chocolate on a cold evening. It also sits happily on a tray for breakfast in bed, or packed into a picnic basket for a weekend outing.
The cup is made entirely of stoneware, and the decoration is painted by hand, so the croissants never fall in exactly the same places on any two cups. Stoneware is a dense, hard-wearing clay that holds heat well, which suits a hot drink. Looking after it is simple: it goes in the dishwasher and the microwave, and it can go in the oven as well. For styling, set it on a wooden board beside a plate of pastries, or keep it on an open kitchen shelf where the croissants bring a little cheer to the morning.
