Description
This white stoneware mug carries a heartfelt thank-you to a teacher, written in a long verse that runs right around it, from 'It takes a big heart to shape little minds' to 'Thank you teacher for helping me grow.' The word Teacher sits either side of the handle in a flowing blue script, bookending the verse, which is set in a crisp black typewriter-style type against the matt white finish. It is a low, generous shape that widens gently towards a neat footed base, with a rounded handle, and it stands 8.5cm tall, 12.1cm wide and 10.2cm deep.
We think it makes a thoughtful thank-you gift for a teacher who has made a real difference, whether it comes from a pupil, a parent or the whole class. The words say what many people find hard to put into their own, so it needs little more than a card alongside it. Its wide, steady shape suits a first coffee in the staffroom or a cup of tea at the desk during marking, and it is just as much at home on a kitchen shelf once the school day is done. Being low and broad, it is a comfortable mug to cradle in both hands on a cold morning.
The mug is made from stoneware, with a smooth matt white finish on the outside and a white interior that keeps your tea or coffee looking just as it should. To keep the lettering crisp, we suggest washing it by hand in warm soapy water and drying it with a soft cloth rather than scrubbing the print. For gifting, tuck a packet of their favourite tea, a bag of coffee or a few sweets inside, then wrap it with a handwritten note of your own, so the verse on the mug and your words arrive together.
