Description
This green stoneware mug carries the words Sprout Sprout Baby in bold white capitals, a cheerful nod to the most talked-about vegetable on the Christmas table. The body is a bright lime green with a glossy glazed finish, while the handle and the inside are a deeper dark green, so the colours work together from every angle. A slim pale band runs around the rim and the base. It stands 9.8cm tall and measures 8.5cm deep, and it holds 340ml, about 11oz, which makes a proper full mug of tea or coffee rather than a dainty cup.
It earns its place in the kitchen through December, whether for the first coffee on Christmas morning or a hot chocolate once the presents are open. The printed words make it a fun Christmas gift that is easy to wrap and sure to raise a smile, whether the person opening it loves sprouts or pushes them to the side of the plate. It works well as a stocking filler or as a little extra tucked in with a larger present, and it sits happily on a dresser shelf or a mug tree among other festive pieces. Because the slogan belongs to the season, it is the kind of mug that comes out each year when the tree goes up.
The mug is made from ceramic stoneware with a glazed finish inside and out, and the lettering is printed on the green body. The dark green handle is an open loop set to one side, with room for your fingers when the mug is full and hot. For care, a wash in warm soapy water with a soft cloth is good practice for glazed stoneware, then dry it well. For gifting, fill it with a bag of coffee, a few tea bags or some chocolates, add a ribbon around the handle, and you have a festive present ready to give.
