Description
This floral stoneware cup and saucer brings a little garden to Mum's tea break. The cup is off-white with a sunny yellow interior, handle and foot, and it is wrapped in a meadow of flowers in coral, lilac, blue and green, with a few tiny bees among them. At the front, inside a wavy-edged circle tied with a little bow, are the words "MUM you are blooming lovely". The matching off-white saucer carries more scattered flowers and a fine blue line around its rim. The cup holds 300ml, so there is room for a full measure of tea or coffee, and together the pair stands 10cm high and measures 16cm across.
It belongs on the kitchen table, beside a favourite armchair or on a breakfast tray, wherever Mum likes to take five quiet minutes for herself. With its cheerful message and garden flowers, it makes a thoughtful Mother's Day gift. It is just as welcome on an ordinary afternoon when you simply want to say thank you. The off-white and yellow colouring sits happily alongside plain white china, and the cup looks lovely left out on an open shelf between uses.
Both the cup and the saucer are stoneware, a kind of ceramic, and the floral design and wording are applied as a decal. The round cup sits on a short yellow foot with a generous loop handle. The saucer gives it a steady place to rest, with room for a teaspoon or a biscuit. To keep the printed design bright, we suggest washing it by hand in warm soapy water and drying it with a soft cloth. On Mother's Day morning, fill it with her favourite tea and bring it to her with a card. You could also wrap it with a packet of shortbread for a gift that is ready to use straight away.
