Description
This pair of stoneware mugs shares one sweet line between them: the grey mug reads 'Always' and the white mug answers with '& forever', each in a flowing script on the side. Set them next to each other and the words join up. Both have the same gently tapered shape, wider at the rim than at the base, with a rounded loop handle and a white inside. The matt finish gives the grey a soft, chalky look and keeps the white calm and quiet, so the two sit well together without trying too hard. Each mug measures 8.6cm tall, 12.2cm wide and 9.8cm deep.
The low, wide shape suits a morning tea or a milky coffee, and the matching pair looks settled and tidy on a kitchen shelf or a breakfast table. It makes a thoughtful Valentine's Day gift, and because the message only reads in full when both mugs are together, it says something about sharing a home and its routines. We like the idea of one mug each, set out side by side on a tray for a slow weekend breakfast, or carried to the sofa for a quiet cup at the end of the day. The soft grey and white sit happily in most kitchens, from plain white units to warmer wood and painted cabinets.
Both mugs are stoneware with a matt finish, printed with their words in the same flowing script so the pair reads as one. To keep the matt surface and the lettering looking their best, we suggest washing them by hand in warm soapy water and drying them with a soft cloth, which is good practice for any decorated stoneware. Keep them together on the shelf so the line always reads in full. For a Valentine's Day present, wrap the pair in tissue with a handwritten note and a bag of tea or coffee, and the gift is complete.
