Description
This generous ceramic mug carries a bright pear print, with plump yellow pears hanging from a branch of pink blossom and a pale green butterfly drifting nearby. The body is white inside and out, so the fruit and flowers stand out clearly, and a turquoise handle adds a cheerful splash of colour. The print continues around the mug, so there is fruit to see whichever way it faces on the shelf. Its wide, rounded bowl sits on a neat foot and opens to a broad rim. This is a large mug: it stands 9.5cm tall, 12.3cm wide and 16cm long, and weighs 0.402KG.
With room for approximately 550ml, it is made for a proper, unhurried drink: a big milky coffee at breakfast, a generous tea to sip slowly or a hot chocolate on a cold evening. It belongs on the breakfast table, beside the kettle or on a desk where a drink needs to go the distance. The wide rim makes it easy to sip from, and the large looped handle gives plenty of room for your fingers. The fruit, blossom and butterfly design brings a fresh, garden feel to the kitchen at any time of year, and it sits happily alongside plain white tableware or other botanical prints.
The mug is ceramic and dishwasher safe, so it copes happily with everyday use and an easy clean at the end of the day. It is not suitable for the microwave, so warm milk in a pan or jug first and pour it in. On display, a wipe with a soft damp cloth keeps it looking fresh. We like it on an open shelf or a cup hook, where the pears and turquoise handle bring a dash of colour to the kitchen, and wrapped in tissue it makes a cheerful present.
