Description
This little stoneware jug carries a smiling bee and two cheerful words, simply the BEST, set against a soft cream finish. The bee is raised from the surface with a gentle embossed edge, its round yellow body crossed with bold black stripes, rosy cheeks either side of a small smile and two pale wings on top. Beneath it, simply the sits in quiet grey lettering above BEST in warm red capitals. It measures 8.5cm tall, 7.5cm across and 5.5cm deep, a compact size that sits happily on even the narrowest shelf.
Its message makes it an easy thank-you gift, and we think it suits teachers especially well, a small token that says a great deal without any fuss. It is just as fitting for Mother's Day, a little cream jug she can keep on a windowsill, a dresser or a bedside table long after the day itself. Being so small, it is happiest where it can be seen up close, on a kitchen shelf, a bookcase or the corner of a desk. A few dried stems or a sprig of dried lavender make a sweet little display in it, and it looks just as cheerful standing empty.
The jug is made from stoneware, a type of ceramic, with a curved handle and a neat pouring lip. Its colours and lettering are a decal finish, while the raised outline of the bee adds a touch of texture you can feel under your fingertips. To keep it looking fresh, dust it with a soft dry cloth, or wipe it gently with a damp cloth and dry it straight away. For gifting, tuck a handwritten note inside the jug or rest a few dried flowers in it, and it is ready to hand over with a smile.
