Description
This cheerful stoneware mug carries a playful tea pun, with "Par-Tea" written in gold script across a soft pink brushstroke and "time" in small capitals just beneath. Beside the words, a little figure sits in a pink teacup marked with a gold heart, raising a star-tipped wand towards a pale blue cloud, while tiny gold, grey and black stars and hearts are scattered all around her. The mug itself is white with a glossy glaze and gold detailing, and the top of the handle carries one more small printed word, "Enjoy", for whoever is holding it. It stands 8.5cm tall, 13cm wide and 12cm deep, and holds 350ml.
That 350ml holds a generous cup of tea or coffee, enough for a proper sit-down break rather than a hurried sip. The mug feels at home on a kitchen shelf beside the kettle, on a desk through a long afternoon or on a breakfast tray at the weekend, and its little pun makes every pot of tea feel like a small celebration. Because the design does all the talking, it is an easy gift to give on its own, or to tuck into a hamper alongside a favourite tea and a packet of biscuits.
Made from stoneware, the mug has a smooth glossy glaze, with a plain white interior, a squat, rounded body that sits low and steady on the table and a generous handle with room for your fingers. To keep the gold detailing bright, we suggest washing the mug by hand in warm soapy water, drying it with a soft cloth and avoiding scouring pads or abrasive cleaners. For a cheerful tea tray, set it beside a pretty teapot and a plate of cake, and let the pun start the conversation.
