Description
This ceramic vase takes the form of a traditional jug, with a tall tapering body, a wide pouring spout and a looped handle, and it carries a happy little pig to brighten the room. The pig is drawn in soft, gentle pinks, eyes closed in a contented grin, sitting neatly beneath the words "piggin gorgeous" in relaxed black handwriting. The body is a clean white with a smooth glossy finish, so the pink of the pig and the dark lettering stand out clearly. It measures 19.6cm tall, 9.6cm wide and 11.1cm deep, a handy size for a modest bunch of stems rather than a towering arrangement.
Set it on a kitchen table, a dresser shelf or a sideboard and it brings a cheerful farmhouse feel wherever it stands. The jug shape suits loose, informal flowers best: a handful of sweet peas, a few tulips, garden cuttings from the border or a bundle of dried grasses all sit happily in its wide neck. Empty, it still earns its place as a decorative piece, and the handle makes it easy to lift and move from room to room. The playful wording raises a smile, so it makes a fun gift too, whether you fill it with flowers first or hand it over ready for someone to fill themselves.
It is made from ceramic and stands on its own base, so it needs no extra support on a level surface. As with any ceramic piece, treat it gently and keep it away from hard knocks. To care for it, dust the outside with a soft dry cloth or wipe it with a damp cloth, and rinse the inside after use. We like it with the stems leaning towards the spout, leaving the pig and its message clear to see, and a ribbon tied around the handle makes it ready to give.
