Description
These are three stoneware mugs, each holding 400ml and each carrying its own blue floral pattern. One has large open flowers drawn in fine outline, one a dense paisley of curling leaves and tiny dots, and the third a deeper blue pattern of small blooms on trailing stems. Each mug is 9.5cm across and 9.5cm tall, as wide as it is high, with a body that narrows gently toward a dark, speckled rim and a rounded loop handle. At 400ml these are generous mugs, sized for a proper builder's tea, a large milky coffee or a hot chocolate rather than a quick espresso.
Because the patterns differ but share the same blue and the same shape, the three sit together as a matched trio without looking identical, and everyone at the breakfast table can claim a favourite. They suit a slow weekend morning, a cosy evening on the sofa, or a desk where one large drink beats several small ones. Stoneware holds heat well, which suits a drink taken slowly. They also make a thoughtful housewarming gift, and the 400ml size works just as well for a mug of soup on a cold lunchtime.
Each mug is 100% stoneware. All three go in the dishwasher and the microwave, so reheating a forgotten coffee is no trouble, though they are not for the oven. The pattern covers the body from just below the rim to the base, and the speckled rim frames it neatly. For a relaxed kitchen, hang them in a row on hooks beneath a shelf so all three patterns stay on show, or set them out on a plain linen cloth, where the blue reads clearly against a simple background.
