Description
This cream stoneware mug is a gentle way to tell a grandmother how much she means, with the word Nan in gold lettering across a pale brushstroke of colour and the message "When you hug me, the whole world feels right" printed beside it. Around the words sits a little night-time scene: two bears sitting close together on a branch, pastel pink, lilac and grey clouds, a gold crescent moon and a scattering of tiny stars and hearts. Along the top of the handle are the words "love you so very much". The mug stands 8.5cm tall, 13cm wide and 12cm deep, with a smooth cream glaze and a softly rounded shape that tapers towards the rim.
It holds 350ml, which makes a generous cup of tea or coffee for a morning cuppa or an afternoon break, and it is just as lovely sitting on a kitchen shelf or a dresser between brews. We think it suits any grandmother known as Nan, whether you are a grandchild giving it yourself or helping little ones choose something for her. The wording speaks of hugs and closeness, so it says plenty on its own, and it is a lovely thing to hand over in person with a box of her favourite tea.
The mug is made from stoneware with a glossy glaze, and the gold-toned lettering, moon and stars catch the light as it turns in the hand. To keep the printed details at their best, we would wash it by hand in warm soapy water with a soft cloth and dry it straight away. For a thoughtful gift, tuck a few teabags or a small bar of chocolate inside the mug and wrap it in tissue, so she finds the message on the handle the first time she reaches for it.
