Description
This round ceramic coaster brings a grinning donkey and two cheeky words to the coffee table. The donkey peers in from one side with wide orange eyes, tall pink-lined ears and a tuft of dark hair standing straight up, drawn in a soft, sketchy watercolour style in greys, pinks and browns. Beside him, in a loose handwritten script, are the words "smart ass", printed all in lower case. The design sits on a white ground, so the colours stay gentle and the joke lands quietly. It measures 10.3cm across and 0.6cm deep, a size that sits comfortably under an everyday mug or a tumbler.
It earns its place wherever a drink gets put down: beside the sofa, on a desk, on a bedside table or on the kitchen table at breakfast. At 10.3cm across, it tucks neatly next to a laptop or a pile of books without taking over the surface. The donkey's sideways look does most of the work, so the joke feels playful rather than rude, and it fits happily into a relaxed living room or a home office. It is a light-hearted little present too, an easy extra to tuck in with a card or a bag of good coffee when you want to make someone smile.
The coaster is made of ceramic with the design printed across the top, and the underside has a brown textured backing that sits flat on the table. At 0.6cm deep it is slim enough to slip into a drawer or keep by the kettle. For care, treat it as you would any printed ceramic piece: wipe the top with a damp cloth, dry it straight away and keep the backing dry. To style it, set it beside a plain mug so the donkey gets the attention, or wrap it with a favourite tea for a gift that raises a laugh before the kettle has boiled.
