Description
This green ceramic mug says it plainly, with the word NAUGHTY standing out in raised white letters across the front. Beside the lettering, near the handle, sits a small sprig of holly moulded into the glaze in the same green, picked out with three glossy red berries. The body tapers gently from a wide rim to a narrower base, and a generous looped handle gives your fingers plenty of room. Inside, the glaze is a soft cream, so tea, coffee or hot chocolate shows its true colour. It stands 11.2cm tall, 13.5cm wide and 9.5cm deep, a comfortable size for a proper hot drink.
It is a mug with a sense of humour, at home on the kitchen shelf, the office desk or the tray by the sofa. We like it for anyone who enjoys a cheeky word with their morning cup, and it makes a light-hearted gift that raises a smile when it is unwrapped. Line it up on a dresser with your everyday mugs and the bright green and crisp white will catch the eye, or keep it for whoever in the house is always first to the biscuit tin. The holly sprig adds a touch of greenery without taking over the design.
The mug is made from ceramic with a smooth, glossy glaze inside and out, and the lettering and holly stand slightly proud of the surface, so you can feel them under your fingers. As good general practice for glazed ceramic, we would wash it by hand in warm soapy water and dry it with a soft cloth, which keeps the white letters and red berries looking fresh. Take care not to knock the rim or handle against hard surfaces. For gifting, fill it with sweets or a few sachets of hot chocolate, wrap it in tissue paper, and it is ready to hand over.
